Actually this question is open for anyone, but I know that Shawn posted some code for this a couple of weeks ago, and I can not seem to search/hunt it down.

I want a "native" (no external tools) method of sending to an NT Global group (or the equivalent) that must work on:
Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP and across both LAN/WAN, but need not work across Domains.

Here are articles I was able to find, but not the one posted by Shawn (which as I recall looked like it would work, just did not need it at the time... Isn't that the way it always goes - as soon as you lose it or give it away, you want it again.)

1.

2.

I suppose I could read a file from the @LDRIVE to get the names from a text file...
