Parameters

pSid

Return Values

If the function succeeds, the return value is the address of the specified SID subauthority. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

If the function fails, the return value is undefined. The function fails if the specified SID structure is invalid or if the index value specified by the nSubAuthority parameter is out of bounds.
