Trying to see if a user is in a certain group

Hello,

Does anyone know how to compare a username to a group and see if they are in
there.

Say the power users group.. I want to check if user A is apart of the power
usrs group and if so, they can use a dropdown or a button on the form,
something like that?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

Thank you in advance,
Ricky

Take a look at 'System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal.IsInRo le'.
