GetObjectOwner and SetObjectOwner Methods Example (VC++)

This example demonstrates the GetObjectOwner and SetObjectOwner methods. This code assumes the existence of the group Accounting (see the Groups and Users Append, ChangePassword Methods Example (VC++) to see how to add this group to the system). The owner of the Categories table is set to Accounting.
