Question : Need to pull active cirectory full name using my.net application and into SQL Database

So I have an asp.net web application (VB), and I'd liek to include the user's full name from active directory into every record to track who created the entry (and possibly who modifies it). I'd like to store it into our SQL database. How would I go about doing so?

Cheers,
Fred

I'm not sure what's the scope of your question, but I'll begin with the basics.

Here's is where you do Active Directory stuff. It's in C#, but you can convert it to VB.net.
