Domain search like setting file permissions

[Scott M]

I would like to create the shell dialog box that opens the search box that
allows a user to search for groups, users and or computers on a local
machine of on a domain (Like choosing domain users when setting file
permissions). Does anyone have a nice .Net wrapper that I can use to
accomplish this or know where I can find it online?

Thanks Much!!

Scott

Hi Scott,

Based on my research, here is a sample on codeproject for your referecne.
Using the Windows 2000/XP Object Selection Dialog
http://www.thecodeproject.com/w2k/Bf...Selection2.asp

We have unmanaged C++ Document about using the dialog, but we did not
provide an official dotnet Wrap.

That looks like exactly like what I need!!!

Is there a way I could get rid of that COM wrapper class?

Would I need to use PInvoke to port the Unmanaged C++ example into a .net
language?

Hi Scott,

To use unmanaged code, we do need a .NET managed Wrapper.
It seems that the link in codeproject has do some job.

If you do not want to use the Wrap, I think you may try to use unmanaged
code only.
Because to communicate between managed code and unmanaged code, we need a
wrapper to do the marshalling between managed code and unmanaged code.

My only issue is that I would prefer to not to have to register a COM
component to run the application.

Hi Scott,

Thanks for your response.
I do understanding your concern, that you do not want to register the COM
so that the deployment will be easier.
But now the dialog you want is implmeneted in the unmanaged COM, our .NET
wrap is used to call the COM Object.

If you are using XP or higher version, you may try to use the RegFree COM
option, but that have some limitation.
Here is a link for you reference.
