Thanks Tim, That worked. Why does that happen? In my
production domain I didn't have to do that, but in the
test domain I just created I did... Thanks for the help! -

you have to register the dll first.

regsvr32 schmmgmt.dll

then you can load the snap-in into MMC

be registered.

What does the tool pack contain that isn't contained in Administrative
Tools? Does installing the tool pack install anything over what is already
contained and configured in Administrative Tools? Not knowing what it
contained I was afraid to install it on my server today because it occurred
to me that I might just obliterate everything I've been toiling away on.

You have to do that on every server that you want to run the Schema Manager
from. Perhaps someone else did it already on your production servers?

The Admin Tools Pack installs the admin tools only. None of the services you
have set up will be affected. If you are concerned about this and only want
AD Schema Manager then you can just "regsvr32 schmmgmt.dll" and avoid
installing the Admin Pack.
For more information on the Admin Tools Pack see
