Reading the OWNER attribute from a .NET program in Windows 7

$

I have an old 32 bit program that calls the NDIR.EXE program in a command shell. Now we've finally moved to Win7 64-bit and the NDIR.EXE doesn't work any more.

We have Novell Client 2 SP3 installed, and I can right-click on a file, go to the Novell Info tab and see the owner. That's what I'm after.

So, should I try to use some Novell API, a built-in .NET function, a built-in Win7 function?? Or is there a newer command line version of NDIR that will give me the same info?

I've been looking at some API docs, but I can't really determine which one goes with what I have installed here. I can't find any of the .dll files mentioned, and I don't have a current Novell SDK.

So...what is the easiest way to get the OWNER id of a network file, without using the Windows Explorer GUI.

I have access to write this in Visual Studio 2012, for either VB or C#. I can also write it in Delphi 7 (way old version).
