Can access all items in User Manager except one.

[ibizarich]

By Shelling out and performing the NET USER command from Access I can create a New user and assign them all the relevant properties Except to tick the box that says "user must change password at next login". I don't know if this was overlooked in the NET USER command as everything else is there. ie, passwordchg and passwordreq, but they are not the right ones. Can anyone tell me how I can get a tick in that box from Access?

If you are using the code I gave you in you other post, you can not request that user change password at next logon from the command prompt.

Also the original code I gave you was a little rushed (sorry). In case you haven't figured it out it won't work as it does not enclose the FullName and Description in double quotes. This revised code is a lot better, with it FullName and Description are optional.

Sub AddNTUsers(strUserName As String, strPassword As String, Optional strFullName As String, Optional strDescription As String)

Dim strCommand As String


strCommand = Environ("ComSpec&quot & " /c net user " & strUserName & " " & strPassword & " /add"

If Len(strFullName) > 0 Then
strCommand = strCommand & " /fullname:""" & strFullName & """"
End If

If Len(strDescription) > 0 Then
strCommand = strCommand & " /usercomment:""" & strDescription & """"
End If

Shell strCommand

End Sub
