Compadres,

OK. We know to use the NetWkstaGetInfo in WIN32 API call in the MSDN
code below for VB. This works great on a NT Workstation pc.
But running this on a WIN95 pc (90% of our network) causes a
'function name not found in dll' error message. A similar call in FoxPro yields only the username.

OK. Here's th heart of the question: What API function or other FoxPro functions can be used to retrieve the lan group info for that pc user off of an NT 4.0 server?
