Example
This example demonstrates the use of the CopyHere Method to copy a User.
Dim UserContainer As IADsContainer
Dim User As IADsUser
Set UserContainer =
GetObject("NTDS://<YourDomainName>")
Set User =
UserContainer.CopyHere("NTDS://<SrcDomainName>/<UserName>",
"<NewName>")
'The next example demonstrates the use of the
CopyHere Method for copying a directory.
Dim FileContainer As IADsContainer
Dim Directory As Ifile
Set FileContainer =
GetObject("NTDS://<YourDomainName>/<MachineName>/file_services/c-drive\documents")
'The next statement will copy the directory documents as a
subdirectory of Dos. It will be copied with the new name
NewDirectory.
Set Directory =
FileContainer.CopyHere("NTDS://<YourDomainName>/<MachineName>/file_services/c-drive/Dos",
"NewDirectory")
