Hi ,



May be the following code help you in loading all the users in a network into Combo 
box.



Just paste the foillowing code in form_load event



                        DirectorySearcher ds = new DirectorySearcher();

                        ds.SearchRoot = new DirectoryEntry("");        

                        

                        ds.Filter = 
"(|(&(objectCategory=computer)(name=*)))";//GetFilterString();                

                        ds.PropertyNamesOnly = true;                

                        //ds.PropertiesToLoad.Add("name");



                        // change the cursor to wait cursor

                        Cursor currentCursor = Cursor.Current;

                        Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor;



                        // start searching

                        SearchResultCollection src = ds.FindAll();

                        try 

                        {

                                foreach (SearchResult sr in src)

                                        AddObjectToCombo(sr.GetDirectoryEntry());

                        }



                        catch (Exception e)

                        {

                                MessageBox.Show(e.Message);

                        }

                        src.Dispose();

                        ds.Dispose();

                        Cursor.Current = currentCursor;



Use one more function  AddObjectToCombo and paste the following code.



                public void AddObjectToCombo(DirectoryEntry de)

                {

                        comboBox1.Items.Add(de.Name.Substring(3));

                        ObjectView.Update();

                }



Thats it !!, it will load the all the users into drop down list. 

NOte: Pls set a reference to System.DirectoryServices



Hope this may help you..... get back to me if you have any prob regarding this.



Regards,

Arshad
