vbscript script needed to get the status of the pwdLastSet for a user

Hello, I have some trouble by getting the status of the pwdLastSet attribute for a user respective for several users. Is there a good way to get an statement like yes/no, True/False or something similar. I need only to get the status of the checkbox "User must change password at next logon", that means if it's checked or not with vbscript. It would be great if someone could give me a hint. Thanks!

Hello 59cobalt, first of all, thanks for your answer -:) However I was already aware of how to change the pwdLastSet attribut. I was rather searching for a possibility to get indicated if the checkbox "User must change password at next logon" is checked or not. Thanks anyway!

I'll even quote the pertinent portion for you: "If this value is set to 0 and the User-Account-Control attribute does not contain the UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWD flag, then the user must set the password at the next logon."
