Scenario:
Create an application which will query Active Directory based on a user's
short name or last name. It will return the user's:

-home path, profile path, and login script properties
-short name
-location of publication (i.e. which OU it resides in)
-all the groups found in the "member of" tab (most important aspect of this
tool)

Save the above contents to a txt file.

I know this sounds simple but I am a n00b and I don't know where to begin or
what resources to look up on how-to get started. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Hi hB,

Thank you for the link. I think the link is a little beyond my
comprehension...is there a more introductory resource which will get me
started with the basics?

Sorry for the late reply!
