Hi, I am writing some programs in Visual Studio, and was wondering about 2 things. First, how do I get that select users dialog box that comes up when you click the Add button in the Security tab of a folders properties dialog box to come up in Visual Basic? I know this can be done in Visual C++, but I need to do this in VB. Also, how do I get a list of groups from Active Directory a certain user is a member of? Thanks!

I haven't done any AD programming with .NET, but I'm told querying AD is pretty simple.

As for the dialog box, search the System.DirectoryServices namespace for something you can use. Worst comes to worst, you could always invoke the DLL you'd use with VC++. (Example)
