Compiling Microsoft's LoginAdmin.dll code without Visual Studio

Question

I'm trying to use some impersonation functions in a classic ASP page. I found a MS KB article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/248187 which explains how to do this, but it requires compiling a DLL. Unfortunately, they expect the developer to have Visual Studio, which I do not have access to (nor do I want to). Could anyone tell me how I would do this with text editor and CLI? I'm getting lost around step 4.

The code in the article is in VB6, you will need a copy of VB6 to compile it. Of course you can find examples of this sort of code in VB.NET as well. Click here for an example.

This article will help you use the .NET frameworks VB compiler.

So it just a matter of placing the bits of source you want into .vb file and compiling as a library. You need to ensure that you get all the COM visible stuff in there so you can call it from VBScript.
