Actually, Mike posted a link that leads to a chm for the file that appears to have everything. I don't know why this file wouldn't be distributed or even referenced in MSDN, or VS enterprise.

Except ADSI objects are not really dynamic objects- they have documented interfaces- (activeds.tlb). It's just that by the time the object is instanciated, I can't tell which interfaces have been implemented. When calling oComputer.Shutdown(), you don't get a "unknown method" error, you get "interface not implemented". It's as if the tlb is lying and the client doesn't know until an attempt is made to call one of the functions. Perhaps if VFP had access to IUnknown::QueryInterface, but somehow I think that that would lie too.

>I think what you need is to build an ADSI explorer/crawler, which is not terribly difficult to do...

I have already built a nice little ADSI browser that uses an object's associated Schema object to fill a tree, but the Schema object doesn't account for methods, and even if it did, it uses a static object definition, so I don't think that it would work anyway.
