Getting group members and group membership.

I am needing to pull a list of users that are in a group. I also need to
pull what groups those members are apart of. I can pull this information as
seperate data with dsget but I need to pull options -display and -memberof.
These are in different parts of the command and it fails. What I am trying
to get out of the dsget is the results of:

user1 group1
group2

user2 group1
group2
group3



Thanks..

probably you can do that using a vbscript.
Search on Technet for some scripts and adapt them to your needs.
(search for a script that is listing the group members and for the other one
that is listing from what groups a user is part of).

Thanks all for the info. I'm not a huge programming guy so vb would be a
chore for me. I can do average scripting through dos and the for command.
I'll look at these three articles and see how I can use them.

Thanks for your time and responses..

Here's what I came up with that gave me the results. Two ways of getting it.
One is a flat file and the other is an individual file of each group.

This uses the $ as a delimiter for importing into excel.
for /f "tokens=*" %%u in ('dsget group %1 -members') do for /f "tokens=*"
%%b in ('dsget user %%u -memberof -expand -c') do @echo %%u$%%b >> %1.txt

This pipes to a .txt file and then reads the groups.
dsquery group -name %1 > groups.txt
for /f "tokens=1 delims= " %%i in (groups.txt) do dsget group %%i -members >
%%i.txt

Hope this helps someone that reads this..
