I am using the following syntax to get the full name via ADSI:
       
Set objrep = GetObject("WinNT://mydomain/" & Trim(rep))
rep = Replace(objrep.FullName,"A-","")

You see in the second line I am replacing A- with a blank thus my problem is, the prefix of the Full Name is not necessarily A- it is a location code like A- for Atlanta S- for Scottsdale etc. Sure I could iterate throug all locations currently present but I am hoping to find a solution to do a generic replace of whatever- to a blank. Anyone has an idea?

Forget it, by just writing it out here it came to me, should start to think before I write LOL. I can just get the very left carachters with  like:
    Set objrep = GetObject("WinNT://mydomain/" & Trim(rep))
    loccode = left(objrep.FullName,2)
    rep = Replace(objrep.FullName,loccode,"")
