I have a visual basic 2005 program in which I would like the user to select a room# from a combobox in visual basic from there I would like results to be displayed in my list view. I am having trouble trying to figure out how to code my search string to search the active directory for the room number the user selected from the combox and display in the list view. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance

You should always search the articles archive at the very least before asking.

You might have found Working with Active Directory in VB.NET[^], if you had.
