RE: [ActiveDir] AD lists Last Name in the First Name Field

[Mulnick, Al]

CSV is not even an option at this point. CSV is only for create/delete operations on Active Directory.  You would have to use LDIF files (even more cumbersome than CSV) or better yet a script that reads each, builds the new fields, and puts them back.  Fairly simple to do and you can probably find some example scripts that would need very little modification to work in your environment.   Al From: Grantham, Caron [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 20, 2004 12:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] AD lists Last Name in the First Name Field   We used a 3rd Party Migration Tool (BindView) to migrate user accounts, mailboxes and profiles and now we have a problem wherein the AD properties for a user show up with their last name in the first name field and first name in the last name field. The GAL and the name display properties are correct however. The problem exists when a users wishes to search by first name in Outlook.   My question: Is there an easy way or another tool we can use to fix these fields? We don't want to use the cumbersome CSV import/export tool to do this unless it's our only option.     Caron Grantham Chicago Housing Authority   Information Technology Services , [EMAIL PROTECTED]   ( 312-742- 2731 Working smarter towards a common goal -- EFFICIENCY   This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are the property of CHA, are confidential, and are intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom this e-mail is addressed.
