Getting UserIDs from NT while in Access VBA

[SBendBuckeye]

I know how to get the environment items using Environ and someone posted a routine a while ago with code to read an NT server logon information, but is there a way to read an NT file of valid users?

I need to create a combobox of system users for about a 60 person organization and would like to create it from the LAN which is NT if I can. Can anyone help me? Is this even possible?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

Have a great daY!

Hi,

I've got to admit that it'd be the most effective way of administering a company user list in Access, but you are talking major security bypassing here (hard to get the NT list - easy to get the Access list).
You'd need to use NT sysad security passwords to get to the info. - in code.

I wouldn't advise doing this - even if the coding was simple (which it won't be).

I would personally get the list of employees - add 'em to a table and maintain the list as and when employees join/leave.
