MCMS .Net Classes - Accessing User Roles & Groups

I'd like to write a C# application that provides
reporting features on the CMS Rights Groups and Users.
There is no good way through Site Manager to generate the
type of reports we frequently need. As a basic example,
we'd like a report of what channels a Rights Group has
access to, without having to look for those check-marks
throughout the entire tree of the channel structure.

Is there anything in the MCMS .Net classes that gives me
access to the rights groups? I know it's all in SQL
Server also, so is there an easy way for me to query that
data for custom reports?

Thanks,
Jen

Hi Jen,

please send me a mail to webmaster@stefan-gossner.de and I will send you a
tool that can export all metadata into an XML file - including the rights
group assignments.

Cheers,
Stefan.
