Link to Active Directory with A2002

[David]

Is there a way to make a table link in the Access Tables window to Active
Directory objects? I'd really like to use the Computers in AD with Access
for part of our Asset Management database (who has what computer, when and
where, etc.). I see that I can export a list from AD, but that's only as
current as the last export. Maybe there's something better. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
David

There's an Ole DB provider for Active Directories, so you should be able to
use ADO to query it.
