This script should create a new user in AD as well as a new mailbox on an Exchange server. Use this one with caution, I haven’t really tested it yet.

Code: Select all

Option Explicit

Dim RootDSE, myDomain
'-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Set RootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE")
Set myDomain = GetObject("LDAP://" & RootDSE.Get("DefaultNamingContext"))

myDomainADSPath = myDomain.ADSPath      ' LDAP://DC=myDomain,DC=com
myDomainPath = MID(myDomain.ADSPath,8)   'DC=myDomain,DC=com

strTitle = "New User with Exchange Mailbox"
strUserName = InputBox("What is the name of the new user?", strTitle, "John Doe")
strSAM = InputBox("What will the be the user's SAMAccount name?", strTitle, "JDoe")
