Hi Erik:
Thanks for responding. I did have the set command in my code but must have excluded when I posted the thread. My error was invalid sytax.
I'm just doing some basic testing of this and just thought that maybe I didn't have the correct components installed on my nt server.
I thought that I might be missing some files but I can't find a source that tells me the exact files I need installed and where. I understand what you're
saying regarding security issues. Do you know if asdi/asp programmers reference guide shows samples of doing what you're suggesting,
creating a com to impersonate an nt account with rights? I really appreciate your input.

>Is this code in your ASP? you should be getting an "object expected" error, becuase you forgot VBScript's Set keyword with your object assignments. FWIW, I find it helpful to test this kind of code in a VFP program first. Also, you realize you will be running into a security problem with this code in an ASP don't you? I've warned you of that in another thread- the _IUSR account, which is what ASP pages run under by default will not be allowed to add users because it does not have the rights. Giving the _IUSR account rights to do this is not a very smart thing to do. Again, I recommend moving this code to a VFP COM server, and configuring that server to impersonate an account with rights.
