    Curious as to if anybody can point me in the right direction. I'm wanting to write a application in vb .net that addresses shared folders on windows 2000 server/ and xp machines. I'm wanting to gather currently used files along with the user name of the person that is using this file. it's similar to the server tools "Server Manager" app, but i'm wanting to do other stuff with this information. If anybody could direct me that would be great, maybe Active Directory, WMI, or filesystem functions. Thanks Gerry -- modified at 12:04 Thursday 6th October, 2005

      Search the articles for "Task Manager Extension". There's one project that adds similar functionality to the Task Manager. The problem is that this project is written in C++. So, you'll have to analyze the code and write equivilent code in VB.NET. There no NO VB/VB.NET examples of doing this anywhere on the 'Net that I have ever found.

        I'm wanting to start programming in c++ anyhow, so should be a good start for me to have an actual project. I have googled around the world a couple times and found nothing also. Thanks for the help Gerry
