Welcome to the board.

Try this, (fill in the blanks, CN is the container name, and DN is the domain name)

Code:

$CN="cn=_____,ou=______"
$DN="dc=_____,dc=com"
$Group=getobject("LDAP://" + $CN + "," + $DN)
? $Group.get("Description")



I've really struggled with the com issues too. One of the best books I've found on it is Microsoft Windows 2000 Scripting Guide . All the examples are in vbscript, but are easily converted to kix.
