memberOf is a backlink and cannot be modified directly.  (It may look like you can do this in AD Users & Computers, but all that's happening is that the GUI is connecting to and modifying the group object on your behalf under the covers.)  In order to add UserA to GroupB, you will need to modify the member property of GroupB and append the DN of UserA.

how do i do this?  do i need to use dsmod?  i would love to be able to add the user to a group as it is being created.  at times i can be creating 3000 accounts.  admodify works fine but it takes time.  i wish i could just add it to our script that creates the accounts.

I usually use the script listed here, along with an Excel file containing the relevant user and group details: http://www.rlmueller.net/CreateUsers.htm

For cmd-scripting, you can use the commands dsadd,dsmod,dsquery
Sample below to combine them, but you can also do the adding of group membership directly as argument to "dsadd  user" by using -memberof

2:
dsadd user "CN=%2 %3,OU=Borough,DC=sample,DC=com" -samid %1 -fn %2 -ln %3 -display "%3, %2" -upn %1@sample.com -profile \\server\%1\profile -email %1@tenafly.net
dsquery user -samid %1|dsmod group Group-DN -addmbr
