Is there a way to get login information from a CAC card in VS2003?
 
I'm not sure I understand. How would this work in theory? Are you expecting the client to use the card and the details to be posted to the server so it can use those details?

The user will insert his/her smart card and enter their pin number. The application will the get the userid and compare it to the entry in the database to get permissions.
 
I'd guess that the only way you'll be able to do that is with the use of an ActiveX component to grab the details (if it is at all possible) and then submit a post to the server with those details.
