Do you meant by Active Directory Group Info?

i don't think QVW will records that info. what is your specific use? and why do you want to get that info..

There are other ways to get that info if you know the user name.

let me know.

Thank you for the reply.

Yes I mean AD group info of other Directory.

I want to get the group name to control the group mumber to access different Tab. The privilege is based on the group but not the members.

For example, I want all the members in group A can access the TabA. And the user1 is in groupA. When the user1 logon, the user1 can access Tab1.

I have a table with the records : group, username, TabA privilege, TabB privilege ... And I can get the username when user1 logon. What I want to do is how can I know the user1 in which group?
