ABSTRACT:

Sample code which shows how to use Novell ActiveX controls for searching NDS objects and sending broadcast messages. This sample allows you to search for any NDS object providing a name pattern like "W*" and a start context for the search. You may select one or more of the found users and send a broadcast message to these. For this purpose, the NDS attribute "Message Server" is read from the users, and this message server is scanned for active user connections.

To keep the code simple no error handling is implemented.

Environment: VB 6 NWDir v2.1 NWSrvAdm v1.3
