I am accessing the items in the Global Address List via AD (i.e
LDAP://OU=Employees,...etc)

I can update attributes like title,department,mobile etc but the same fails
when it comes to the 'Manager'.

Using the ADSIEdit tool I notice that the value for the attribute Manager is
generally - CN=Name,OU=Gp,OU=Region.......DC=xxx etc..

I have tried assigning the new manager in the same format yet it fails.I am
running the VBScript file on an account that has access and can update the
AD. Is there any particular reason why the same fails ?
