mr_vodka Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I was wondering once we use AD to authenticate the user, is there any way of pulling the user information out of the AD Object component? When creating my users table in FM, I would rather it pull the data from AD considering that the name, title, email, location, phone, etc etc is all stored in AD anyway. TIA.

Wim Decorte Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 sure there is. You'll need to use VBscript or something similar though to interact with the AD, FM can't do it natively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_vodka Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 Thanks Wim, Would this be a big effort or would the VB script be simple enough to do this without raising a big rukus with my IT dept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wim Decorte Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Hi John, There are probably some sample VBscripts in the VBscript repository FM database that's in the downloads section of my website (www.connectingdata.com). If there are not let me know and I'll point you to where you can find some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
