The [System.DirectoryServices Namespace | Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.directoryservices?view=dotnet-plat-ext-6.0#:~:text=Provides easy access to Active,Services Interfaces (ADSI) technology.) and its classes belong to the .NET, so they appear to have nothing to do with the native C++ code. You probably need to create a C++/CLI project to use these namespace/classes.

It is .Net: Microsoft Development Environment 2003 Version 7.1.3088. Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 Version 1.1.4322 Visual C++ MFC: When I add to References System.DirectoryServices.dll it refuses to add not 1.1.4322 version of it, only System.DirectoryServices.dll of 1.1.4322 version

.Net is for managed C++/CLI. MFC does nt support "managed" code, only the native one. So you have to create a new C++/CLI project and try to work with this DirectorySearcher class in there.

I seriously recommend upgrading Visual Studio to latest and use a version of the .NET Framework that hasn't been dead for the last 10 years.

Can you think about the problem to implement the use of DirectorySearcher class? I have System.DirectoryServices.dll suitable exactly for my version of Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 Version 1.1.4322. Other versions of System.DirectoryServices.dll are refused to be added to the References folder in the project. About to upgrade software that will be suitable to new Visual Studio version - it not so simple. It is huge old software. I has performed conversion today but can not yet to see the result today. There were errors that conversion raised during it

There are many articles found by .net and mfc - Google Search[^] which explain how to mix MFC and .NET classes.
Plus, let's not forget the "bible" of native/managed interop, C++/CLI in Action[^] by our friend Nish.
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.
