From: alex on 8 Mar 2010 20:39 Function for UserName Group Hello, Using Access 03 on XP system I know there are a few functions out there that will pull the windows username Im looking for one that will also return the group (set by the sys administrator) to which the username is assignedshould the username be assigned to a group. One of the functions that returns the username, utilizes (I believe) the mpr.dll maybe theres one for the group name (just a thought)? Thanks for any help, alex
From: Daniel Pineault on 9 Mar 2010 08:24 What type of group information are you referring to? From your original post, I believe you are not referring to database uls groups. So are you meaning domain group? Which type of domain architecture are you using (NT, active directory, etc.)??? If I am way off the mark, please explain further. -- Hope this helps, Daniel Pineault http://www.cardaconsultants.com/ For Access Tips and Examples: http://www.devhut.net Please rate this post using the vote buttons if it was helpful.

You're right, I'm not talking about the database uls group. I'm talking about the domain group: right click on folder > properties > security (that group). I'm unsure of the architecture, but I could check if you told me how. Thanks again, alex
From: Daniel Pineault on 9 Mar 2010 12:20 Your best bet, or at least a good place to start, would be to check out http://vbnet.mvps.org/ and see if you can find what you need there. For instance, I saw the following, which might be what you are looking for http://vbnet.mvps.org/index.html?code/network/netgocalgroupgetmembers.htm http://vbnet.mvps.org/index.html?code/wmi/win32_account.htm You may have to do some tweaking to suit your exact need, but you should be able to find something to get you on your way. -- Hope this helps, Daniel Pineault http://www.cardaconsultants.com/ For Access Tips and Examples: http://www.devhut.net Please rate this post using the vote buttons if it was helpful.

I've tried some of the code, but I'm having difficulty getting it to run in VBA. I'll keep trying. Thanks again, alex
