Books/References new to scripting in AD/2003

Hello, I am new to the scripting world in an AD environment. I have done
some stuff relating to web servers/e-commerce. I am now in charge of a 50+
user network and all its components. I am working on cleaning/updating and
organizing AD a bit and am looking to be able to pull some reports out of
this data for the office users (i.e.: telephone directory, etc) I am looking
for recommendations for good books/whitepapers, websites, etc to help get me
up to speed.

I have looked at the Scripting repository and have started to toy a bit with
some stuff there (script to pull AD users into an excel Spread*** for one)
but can't seem to figure out how to get only active (non-disabled users).

Thanks for any help and guidance you can offer.

Tim
