Quick Active Directory LDAP query variable issue

[kikovass]

I have the following:

LDAP://ou=X,dc=X,dc=X;(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(sAMAccountName=strCuruser));sAMAccountNam e,altRecipient,mailNickname;subtree

I need strCuruser to be a variable in (sAMAccountName=strCuruser).

How should I enclose strCuruser to set it as a variable?

For any active directory functions I always refer to this posting on code project. Pretty much exposes anything you would want to do with LDAP.

Dim ldap as String = String.Format("LDAP://ou=X,dc=X,dc=X;(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(sAMAccountName={0}));sAMAccountName,altRecipient,ma ilNickname;subtree", TextBox1.Text)

replace textbox1.text with however you retrieve the name you want.

Thanks,

I figured this out earlier. This is what I did.

strSam = "(sAMAccountName=" & strCuruser & "))"
strFilter = "(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)" & (strSam)
