string dom = "MyDomain";

DirectoryEntry entry = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://" + dom);
DirectorySearcher mySearcher = new DirectorySearcher(entry);

mySearcher.Filter = ("(objectClass=user)");

foreach(SearchResult resEnt in mySearcher.FindAll())
{
try
{
DirectoryEntry de=resEnt.GetDirectoryEntry();
'adding bound columns to the datagrid
BoundCoulmn dataGridCol = new BoundCoulmn();
datagridcol.HeaderText = "User Login";
datagridcol.DataField = de.Properties["sAMAccountName"].Value.ToString());
DataGrid1.Columns.Add(datagridcol);

datagridcol = new BoundCoulmn();
datagridcol.HeaderText = "Email Address";
datagridcol.DataField = de.Properties["Mail"].Value.ToString());
DataGrid1.Columns.Add(datagridcol);

datagridcol = new BoundCoulmn();
datagridcol.HeaderText = "First Name";
