Setting Group Type for new Active Directory Entry in VB.NET


I'm trying to set the group type for a new Active Directory Entry via VB.NET and DirectoryServices to create a distribution list.

How do I access the ADS_GROUP_TYPE enumerations?

Specifically I'm after ADS_GROUP_TYPE_GLOBAL_GROUP.

    Just a wee nitpick, this constant doesn't need to be an object, you can make it an int32 -

    Const ADS_GROUP_TYPE_GLOBAL_GROUP As Object = &H2
