    Hi,
    i need to read programmetically the values of local security setting present under Administrative Tools.I'm expecting the helping source code should be in C++ or VC++.Is there any window API handle to have control on these settings programmetically.
    i need it soon .so please help me out in this regard.

    Thank you to read my problem.

    Windows saves all its settings in REGISTRY entries. Try looking for REGISTRY entries relevant to SETTINGS you want to manipulate. Visual C++ will must have such class though I have never used it.
