Rob i get this...

---------------------------

---------------------------
Could not connect the group at: LDAP://CN=Chennai_NewJoiners,OU=Chennai Distribution Groups,DC=Development,DC=Group,DC=co,DC=uk
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

It has to connect to the root Domain but its connecting to the local Domain..

The path should be like

CN=Chennai_NewJoiners,OU=Chennai Distribution Groups,DC=Group,DC=co,DC=uk

OK then, that's fine, just change these two lines:
Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE")
strDNSName = objRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext")

to this:
strDNSName = "DC=Group,DC=Co,DC=uk"

Ooops, again, same thing, change this line:
If boolFound = False Then objOutputFile.WriteLine strNTLogin " is not a member."

to this:
If boolFound = False Then objOutputFile.WriteLine strNTLogin & " is not a member."
