Active directory

[BobBob10]

The example below returns the full name from Active directory. How do I return other information such as email address etc?

Dim dsDirectoryEntry As DirectoryEntry

strPath = "WinNT://" & strDomain & "/" & strLogin
dsDirectoryEntry = New DirectoryEntry(strPath)
strFullName = CType(dsDirectoryEntry.Invoke("Get", "FullName"), String)
[\code]

I've only done a few queries like this, but it's my understanding that everything matches the label in the AD Users & Computers tool.

If this holds true, then to get e-mail, your code would change to

.....
strEMail = CType(dsDirectoryEntry.Invoke("Get", "EMail"), String)

I don't have an AD available to me atm to test on, so let me know if this works

doesn't work already tried it.

Thanks anyway

OK...I just looked through my old code and the parameter is Mail...not EMail

Also, just in case you're wanting to know the other entries as well, theres a write up here with them
