vbscript - Use string as Object method -

basically, i'm creating small script update ad attributes (for super user, not admin).

i've got number of attributes, need custom field user can type in ad attribute , searched ldap query , displayed using objuser.

here code:

do while z = true     attrchoice = inputbox("please enter custom attribute wish edit", "custom attribute")     msgbox "you have selected " & objuser.+attrchoice, vbokonly+vbinformation, objuser.displayname     on error resume next     if err.number <> 0         msgbox "error!" & vbcrlf & "attribute cannot found, please try again", vbokonly+vbexclamation, "error"     else         z = false     end if     on error goto 0  loop 

as can see, i've tried doing objuser. attribute part few different ways - i'm not sure how use string that's input user.

in custom field, user put "mail" , code run objuser.mail - make sense?

if need more information, please say.

obviously, i've set objects further in script , there other parts script. working okay, example:

telchoice = msgbox("user's current telephone number " & objuser.telephonenumber & vbcrlf & vbcrlf & _ "do want change user's telephone number?", vbyesno+vbquestion, objuser.displayname)  if telchoice = 6     newtel = inputbox("please enter new telephone number", "telephone number", objuser.telephonenumber)      if not adorecord.eof         on error resume next         objuser.put "telephonenumber", newtel         objuser.setinfo         on error goto 0     end if     msgbox "user's new telephone number " & objuser.telephonenumber, vbokonly+vbinformation, objuser.displayname end if 

just use get() function.

strvalue = objuser.get(attrchoice) 

i see you're using put() function later on assign values attributes. it's similar, opposite.
