Moving Directory Objects

.NET Framework 2.0

To move objects to a new container, use the MoveTo method.

The following example shows how to use MoveTo to move a user object.

Copy

try
{
    // Bind to the object to be moved.
    DirectoryEntry NewUser = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://CN=User Name,OU=Sales,DC=fabrikam,DC=com");
    // Use the MoveTo property to define the new container you want to move the object to.
    NewUser.MoveTo( new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://OU=HR,DC=fabrikam,DC=com"));
}
catch (InvalidOperationException InvOpEx)
{
    // Handle InvalidOperationException.
    Console.WriteLine(InvOpEx.Message);
}
catch (COMException COMEx)
{
    // Handle COMException.
    // For more information about handling COM exceptions, see Handling Errors.
    Console.WriteLine(COMEx.Message);
}
