Agreed; it could work like Explorer's file search where you get an "open containing folder" option Steve

Once you do a simple search, there should be an easy way to locate that object in the hierarchy or to identify the OU in which it resides. Either an OU column or a right-click and "Go to Object" command (or both) would be great. [1] Thanks. -- nme [1] This is one of those functions that I figure must be in there somewhere already, and I am just missing it. One of those: it must be right in front of my eyes things. If that is the case, please elucidate and the request is withdrawn ;-) ________________________________ From: joe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 13, 2006 7:08 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] ADUC updates - Was Expired Accounts How much control would you like over the formatting if any?

Would be nice to be able to shift click computers and do add to group Shift click group members and remove from group Choose columns displayed in the group members view (here we use employee IDs from HR for the CN which is what it displays). Have the GUI remember columns I chose to show Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c - 312.731.3132 ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of joe Sent: Thu 1/12/2006 10:22 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] ADUC updates - Was Expired Accounts Well, ok, lets do this. Everyone who has an idea for a change to ADUC post to the ideas to this thread. Don't be shy, you may have thought of something no one else would think of that once seeing it would go this is very cool. Then when the thread seems to die (or some point after that when I catch up :oP ) I will summarize to make sure I understand and then post to LadyBug as improvements that could be made. Also, you may or may not be shocked to hear that many of the folks working on the stuff in Redmond actually watch this list on a regular basis too so they may see it directly. I know the conversation we had previously about suggested improvements to AD was watched pretty closely and generated several DCRs without me even arguing with anyone. So let's hear it. First item on the table is different icons flagging accounts (and I am stating this generically) that are not currently live. This includes disabled, locked, expired passwords, expired accounts? Would this be better to add maybe as additional columns that you could tell the GUI to sort on? Or the icons are best? Note to Dean: This is D's bailywick now isn't it? I think I recall us having this conversation at BB. joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thommes, Michael M.

How do you want the GUI to present things to you. The developers or whomever wrote the spec for the developers didn't feel it should. You also have to ask if accounts with locked passwords should show up that way and define if you mean expired accounts or expired passwords on accounts and whether or not you would differentiate them in that marking. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Douglas M.
