New Programs

Adrights

Adchkval

  • This program is intended for use in a script or batch file to determine whether an attribute of an object has a given value e.g. that the department attribute contains "Marketing". An error level is set indicating the result. Adchkval may be used for any attribute holding a string value, and for attributes holding objects as values.

64 bit programs

This release includes new 64 bit versions of all programs except adjrbpass. The programs, with one exception, behave identically to the 32 bit versions but may offer some performance advantages on 64 bit Windows. The one program which should be used instead of its 32 bit counterpart is adhome. Details are given on the following pages.
