Is there a way to list all users on a network in VB? I want to create an app which will show how many acounts there are.
Also is it possible to list all folders on a server, as this is where a lot of account folders are stored and I could pick them off from a list. Any info is appreciated.
Thanks for your help :)

Thanks mate. I assume this code lists all resources on a network, like machines, printers etc. Is there a function which will enumerate all users on a network? Maybe similar to this? Thanks :)
