Title: groups vs attributes
I just wanted to point out on this post that user isn't an objectcategory, this would get changed to be objectcategory=person. For all intents and purposes for this specific filter, it would be just as efficient but could hurt you in other queries.

I may be missing something in the reading, but why not just query AD based on the username and determine if that user object is a member of the group in question instead of returning a list of all users for a given group? Another possibility (one you may well have thought of already but didn’t mention) is that you can filter your search [searcher.Filter = "(&(objectCategory=user)(sAMAccountName=" & Trim(userName) & "))"]
