The IADsGroup interface enables a COM object in Active Directory to manage the information that describes and manages group membership.
Properties accessed by IADsGroup are defined on the ADSI Group Object.
Implement IADsGroup only when you are providing an Active Directory implementation for a directory service that supports group memberships.
