Access Deleted Objects container in VB6 via <WKGUID>

[Tomeczek]

I'm trying to open/read AD Deleted object container using "LDAP://<WKGUID=..." but it fails...
I have to use VB6 (not VB.Net or C#).

Can someone help me?
Here is the failing code:

Const GUID_DELETED_OBJECTS_CONTAINER_W = "18E2EA80684F11D2B9AA00C04F79F805"

Set oRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://rootDSE")

sFQDN = oRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext")
sDelObjCont = "LDAP://<WKGUID=" & GUID_DELETED_OBJECTS_CONTAINER_W & "," & sFQDN & ">"

Set oDelObjCont = GetObject(sDelObjCont)
'^^^___ fails here:
' Automation error
' There is no such object on the server

thank you in advance!

Looks like VBScript, not VB6.

In any case it sounds like some sort of LDAP syntax issue or something. Examples look like:

LDAP://<WKGUID=a9d1ca15768811d1aded00c04fd8d5cd,dc=Fabrikam,dc=com>

What is in your sFQDN String?
