How do you uncheck "User cannot change password" and "Password never exipers" attributes in vb.net

Does anyone have any code that can do this. From what I understand,
these are flags in the "userAccountControl" properties but unsure how
to get it unchecked. Can anyone help?

Imports System
Imports System.DirectoryServices

Namespace ActiveDirectorySearch
Public Class ADSearch
Shared Sub main(ByVal strUserName As String)
Dim Entry As New
DirectoryEntry("LDAP://server/dc=fully,dc=qualified,dc=domain")
Dim DSESearcher As New DirectorySearcher(Entry)
Dim strFilter As String = "(sAMAccountName=" & strUserName
& ")"
Dim objUser As DirectoryEntry

DSESearcher.SearchScope = SearchScope.Subtree
DSESearcher.Filter = strFilter
DSESearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("pwdLastSet")
DSESearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("userAccountContr ol")

Dim objResult As SearchResult = DSESearcher.FindOne

If Not objResult Is Nothing Then

objUser = objResult.GetDirectoryEntry

objUser.Properties("pwdLastSet").Value = 0
objUser.CommitChanges()

End If

End Sub
End Class
End Namespace
