      Hi Guys, 

The above script is for Visual Basic - down http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2010-editions/express - Visual Studio Express - works great if you have the right tools.

      I have a LAB with Win 2008 DC's and clients (6 Hyper-V guest machines) and this script is helpful when I test users on AD and reporting and monitoring scripts.

      I am very new to VB

I do understand using Dim and Imports statements, just not sure what each of these items should have been Dimmed as, or what imports to use, if any.

When I add the code to a new project, it tells me that

Name 'objRootDSE' is not delared
Name 'objContainer' is not delared
Name 'objLeaf' is not delared 
Name 'WScript' is not delared

Any help you can give me is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Curt
