'I expect only one user from search result
Select Case mySearchResultC oll.Count

'Get the search result from the collection
mySearchResult = mySearchResultC oll.Item(0)
'Get the Properites, they contain the usefull info
myResultPropCol l = mySearchResult. Properties

Hi Tim:
The filter seems to be looking for a specific user account by
including samAccountName. Have you tried removing it from the filter?

Hi can someone please tell me how I change this directory service query so
that it searches through each record in the active directory and returns all
the accounts!
At the moment I can only get the query to return one account at a time!
I presume I have to create some kind of loop on the following so I return
all the users SAM info????
Dim SamAccount As String = Right(inSAM, Len(inSAM) - InStr(inSAM, "\"))
I would be really grateful for any help!
Thanks
