Subject:      Re: Returning multiple values for an attribute in Active Directory

You on v7.1... so your in luck... I know this feature was added in
some version.. but I am not sure exactly which one...

REF the section "Multivalued attributes" ( Integrating-710.pdf  page 123 )

Which goes on to page 124 to say:
"
To resolve this difference between the two data models, use a special notation 
when
specifying the attribute name in the Field Properties window:
<attribute_name>[*<separator_string>]
Values associated with <attribute_name> are concatenated into a single value in 
AR System but separated with <separator_string>. For example, to concatenate
all values associated with the telephoneNumber attribute and separate each 
value with a comma you would enter the following as the attribute name in the 
Form
Properties window: telephoneNumber[*,]
You could then define workflow to extract, add, or modify values in the comma 
separated
list of telephone numbers.
"

If that works...then you should be good to go.
