GET DOMAIN MEMBERSHIP

Hello. I'm looking for a way to check and see if a user is a member of a
particular domain group. I have the code to enumerate the current Windows
user, but I don't know how to check it against a domain group.

Thanks.

Richard's site has VBScript solutions. You should be able to copy them
directly into VBA without any change necessary.

VBScript doesn't have variable typing: everything is a variant. Fortunately,
in VBA when you declare something as

Dim MyVariable

that automatically declares it as a variant.

Thanks Dave. I don't know to port these over to VBA though, and I believe
there are certain calls that I need to make to system files or otherwise
to
get this to work in access. Any help in that direction would be great.

This script may do what you want. These are VBScripts and as such shouldn't
need any special references.
