Code 80005xxx - ADSI errors
Errors beginning with 80005xxx point to an ADSI error in your VBScript. While the message box calls them ADSI, I think of them as LDAP errors. For example, suppose that you are scripting a user's properties and you type givename instead of givenName (two ns), that mistake in the ADSI / LDAP name would generate an 80005xxx error.

Code 80005000 Object Required
Code 80005001 An unknown ADSI domain object was requested
Code 80005002 An unknown ADSI user object was requested
Code 80005003 An unknown ADSI computer object was requested
Code 8000500D The directory property cannot be found

Code 8007xxxx - Operating System error e.g. Windows 2003 / XP
