Hello,

I'm trying to use this script to resolve user ID's from Sid's

strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

Set objAccount = objWMIService.Get _
("Win32_SID.SID='S-1-5-18...........")
Wscript.Echo objAccount.AccountName
Wscript.Echo objAccount.ReferencedDomainName

However i want to introduce a "strsid = inputbox("Enter User SID")" and then
use something like "Set objAccount = objWMIService.Get _
("Win32_SID.SID=strsid")

but this doesn't work, what do i need to tweak so i can use the variable
rather than specific text in the script?

Thanks!
