How to manage Active Directory management tools on Windows 7

Hi
I have added a user with the Delegate Controls wizard for one of my OU’s but when I go to the workstation and try to managed through Active Directory management tools I’m not seeing anything under Active Directory Administrative Center.

When you run ADAC from the Windows 7, if you are not logged on as domain admin, try:
1. Select ADAC
2. Press Shift and right-click. Pick "Run as different user". Enter domain admin credentials.

The user that I am trying to set up is not an admin I only want them to  manage things like changing passwords, un lock users and adding workstations into the domain, am I going about this the right way?
Yes, you are. You just opened the wrong snap-in, I guess.
So I went to Active directory users and computers from the Windows 7 PC  but I get this error:

Did that today, it just worked. No admin credentials required.
If you like, I will reproduce that tomorrow morning on a clean win7.
Okay sounds good I must have missed something.
