The Windows Object virtual table gives you an overview of the Windows users and Windows groups that can be integrated into the Microsoft Dynamics NAV security system. You can see this information when Microsoft Dynamics NAV is running on a client that is Active Directory-enabled. Microsoft Dynamics NAV retrieves the data from Active Directory.

The Windows Object virtual table has the following fields.
