        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string filename = filenameTextBox.Text;
        if (File.Exists(filename))
        {
            aceInformationTextBox.Text = GetAccessControlInformation(filename);
        }
        else
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Given file does not exist.", this.Text,
                MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation);
        }
    }
    private string GetAccessControlInformation(string filename)
    {
        StringBuilder info = new StringBuilder();
        info.AppendLine("ACE entries for the file \"" + filename + "\":");
        info.AppendLine();
        FileSecurity security = File.GetAccessControl(filename);
        AuthorizationRuleCollection acl = security.GetAccessRules(true, true,
            typeof(System.Security.Principal.NTAccount));
        foreach (FileSystemAccessRule ace in acl)
        {
            string aceInfo = GetAceInformation(ace);
            info.AppendLine(aceInfo);
        }
        return info.ToString();
    }
    private string GetAceInformation(FileSystemAccessRule ace)
    {
        StringBuilder info = new StringBuilder();
        string line = string.Format("Account: {0}", ace.IdentityReference.Value);
        info.AppendLine(line);
        line = string.Format("Type: {0}", ace.AccessControlType);
        info.AppendLine(line);
        line = string.Format("Rights: {0}", ace.FileSystemRights);
        info.AppendLine(line);
