    The "DirectoryEntry.Path Property" is a String property. For a detailed
    description search the .Net Framwork SDK Documentation.

    VB.NET:

    Dim searcher as new DirectorySearcher("LDAP://dc=yourdomain,dc=com")
    searcher.Filter="(&(objectClass=user)(samaccountname=" & username & "))"
    Dim result as SearchResult = searcher.FindOne
    Dim userEntry as DirectoryEntry = result.GetDirectoryEntry()
    Dim containerEntry as DirectoryEntry = userEntry.Parent
    Dim String containerPath = containerEntry.Path
