This works:
[int] $uac = $User.userAccountControl[0]
if ($uac -band $ADS_UF_NORMAL_ACCOUNT )
{
Write-Host "Normal user"
}
else
{
Write-Host "Abnormal user"
}
}
So I have to force the conversion to an INT type, then I can test with
IF or SWITCH or whatever, against my constants.
Thanks for all the help!
