Get all members of Domino Directory Group
This code generates a list of users from a group name from the NAB, determines whether the name corresponds to a person or group and breaks each group down into its person members.
This code generates a list of users from a group name from the NAB. The code will determine whether the name corresponds to a person or group, and if it's a group, then the code will break it down into all person members. The code works even if there are nested groups. However, the code is restricted by the Domino limit on recursive calls, which depends on the Domino Directory.
