You may need to include typelib references depending on what your doing:

<reference guid="{97D25DB0-0363-11CF-ABC4-02608C9E7553}"/>
    
    <reference guid="{00000205-0000-0010-8000-00AA006D2EA4}"/>

You may need to use Object.Get (for single valued properties) or Object.GetEx (for mutivalued properties), Object.Put (for single valued properties) or Object.PutEx (for mutivalued properties), and then Object.SetInfo (instead of oRs.Update), something like:

If Not oRs.BOF Or oRs.EOF Then

Do While Not oRs.EOF

Set oObject = GetObject(oRs("ADsPath"))

With oObject

.Put "givenname", "John"

.Put "inititals", "Q."

.Put "sn", "Public"

.PutEx ADS_PROPERTY_UPDATE, "description", Array("Human Resources Staff")

.PutEx ADS_PROPERTY_UPDATE, "otherTelephone", Array("(987) 654-3210","(987) 987-6543")

.SetInfo

End With

oRs.MoveNext

Loop

Else

'-- empty recordset

End If

I’m sorry I didn’t word the question very well…I understand how to get the ADO search to work, per your suggestion. Can I update the value? e.g. objRS.Update or something to that effect?

Or do I need a subroutine that builds the user object first?

RootDSE() and subtree should do it for you. Also if you expect to return more than 1000 objects, you should increase the "Page Size" value in your ADO/ADsDSOObject query.

Do I want to use ADO if I want to search all users in a domain and then alter an attribute based on its current value, or is there a better method? Up to now, I’ve only tried using ADO to return a result set, not modify.

The part I’m struggling with is making the search recursive through the whole domain, rather than having to specify a container or OU, and I know in ADO I can specify a subtree as the scope.

Thanks!
