Neil, Thanks for the link. Can you recommend a good book for a beginner on ADSI and VB Scripting?
Cheers, Paul -----Original Message----- From: Neil Hobson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 14 June 2002 11:31 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange Administrator Customisation I reckon you could play about with the Schema to get the Employee-Number attribute to work, like modifying the heuristics value, etc. But I'd say that's really dangerous stuff without either a test server and under direction from PSS. Here's a link anyway that *may* help: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnactdi r/html/msdn_adsiexch.asp Neil -----Original Message----- From: Bendall, Paul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: 14 June 2002 11:20 Posted To: Swynk Exchange List Conversation: Exchange Administrator Customisation Subject: RE: Exchange Administrator Customisation I guessed that might be another option, but as my scripting skills are limited to basic VBA only I guess I should skill up in some other areas, recommend any good books?

We use asp to create mailboxes so helpdesk can view, set and search on that attribute. There could be an easier way, but I don't know of one. -----Original Message----- From: Bendall, Paul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 14, 2002 3:06 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange Administrator Customisation I did think of doing that Jennifer, but it seemed to me a bit of a waste to use a custom attribute when an existing attribute already exists but it is just not visible in the Exchange Admin program. Thanks for the input though Paul -----Original Message----- From: Baker, Jennifer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 14 June 2002 10:53 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange Administrator Customisation Use a custom attribute. Change the name of one of the custom attributes to employee number under the config > ds site config > custom attribute tab. -----Original Message----- From: Bendall, Paul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 14, 2002 2:48 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Exchange Administrator Customisation I have got a feeling the answer to this question is quite complicated, but here goes anyway. I have found in the directory store of Exchange 5.5 is an attribute called Employee Number, we would like to use this field for recording employee numbers. However, in the creation of a new mailbox this attribute is not displayed unless you look at the raw properties. Is there a way to customise the Exchange Admin program for making other attributes visible or does anyone have another suggestion on how when creating a mailbox the employee number is visible.
