I would like to access to the system to take usernames, check passwords with Windows NT or Windows 2000... because i want to check the entries to a vb program.

It would be very useful for me
thank you

You can use the GetUserName API to obtain a username. Not aware of any APIs that retrieve passwords. I hope none exist!!

‘=====================================
Option Explicit
Private Declare Function GetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias "GetUserNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long


Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim sUserName As String
Dim iLen As Long

sUserName = Space(255)
iLen = GetUserName(sUserName, 255)
MsgBox Left$(sUserName, InStr(sUserName, vbNullChar) - 1)

End Sub
