Could anyone please help?

I'm trying to MATCH the user's UserName and Password imput to the user's
UserName & Password from the machine current logged on.

User's Input:
txtUserName="Joe"
txtPwd="Password"

Machine's data:
strUserName = ???
strPwd = ???

thanks a lot in advance.
 
i highly doubt youl be able to get the users stored password since that would
be a breach of security. also, doesnt windows hash the user passwords so they
cant be hacked? if you could find the hashed user password and the hash
algorithm used for it, maybe you could hash their input and compare it to the
saved one

I doubt you will be able to "get" the user's password. Instead your
program can try to logon using the passed in username and password and
if that succeeds, you know it is correct. Here is a class I use that
calls the LogonUser api. Maybe it will help you:
