The single syntax error was the double back-slash (\\) after the "Domain" name - it should be a single back slash as in the base command (net localgroup Administrators /add Domain\Group).
I should have picked this up, but I thought that VBScripting the command somehow required the double back-slash.
Nonetheless, I declare this to be the solution!

The JPEG shows 4 dialog boxes: the Active Directory group, the VBS script file contents, the 'null' result when CSCRIPT is used at the command prompt, and the unchanged contents of the local "Administrators" group.
