Hi guys

I'm working on project that need to connect to Active Directory to check whether user is existed or not ?
I used to use Vb.Net and C#.net to AD , but in livecode just run vbscript to connect AD , so is it Vb.net and VBscript is similar.
Could I use Vb.net to connect to AD ? if so , what should I do ?
Hope you guys give me some solution to fix that problem
Thanks a lot

Hi guys

I had a vbscript to check whether user exist or not on AD,and now it work well when I run vbscript file.
But in livecode how to pass parameter to this vbscript. On my way is :
put cd field "Authentication" of cd "Test" of stack "Untitled 1" into tVB
put field "Users" into tFullUserID
put field "Passs" into tPassword
replace "strUsername" with "'"&tFullUserID&"'" in tVB-- strUsername is in vbscript
replace "strPassword" with "'"&tPassword&"'" in tVB-- same

and in that vbscript I return value after authentication with AD
but It just return "Execute error"
hope you guy give me ideas to pass parameter into vbscript

Hi Quang,

did you check the resulting complete VB scripts?
Put it into a field and I am sure you will SEE where the problems are!

Quick hint:
User parenthesis to construct your strings:
...
replace "strUsername" with ("'"&tFullUserID&"'") in tVB
replace "strPassword" with ("'"&tPassword&"'") in tVB
...

To avoid possible problems (e.g. with "wrong" Quotes) you should put the quotes
directly in the field with the "template" VB script. Know what I mean?

In your example I would put this into the template VB script:
...
... 'strUsername' ...
... 'strPassword' ...
...

Then you will only need to replace the "naked" strings:
...
replace "strUsername" with tFullUserID in tVB
replace "strPassword" with tPassword in tVB
## The single QUOTES will remain untouched!
...
