//Example code for calling application
ArrayList RetGroups = new ArrayList();

char [] delimiter = delimStr.ToCharArray();
foreach(string str in RetGroups)
{ //I used this to retrieve the type of group so I could use an icon in a treeview if desired.
//split[0] is the "domain/group or user", split[1] is the type, 1 for user, 2 for group.
string [] split = null;
split = str.Split(delimiter);
Console.WriteLine(split[0] + split[1]);
