Hi,
Our Active Directory is not the most up-to-date database of information. i'd like to create an InfoPath 2007 form, that we could send out to our users annually where they can enter their information, Title, Manager, Department, Phone Number, etc. and then when they submit the form it enters the data they entered into the appropriate fields in Active Directory. I've followed an example on msdn on how to retrieve User information from AD (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb952744.aspx), and i noticed on my test form it would error out because there was no Title or Manager listed. if i commented those lines out it would work fine, which got me thinking about how we could let our users update that information and keep everything as current as possible.
Bringing in a 3rd party application like Qdabra i would imagine is out of the question, as i do not have enough say here to get anyone to buy into that concept, but it looks like it might be possible with some C# coding. unfortunately I'm not a programmer, so i'm looking for examples on how i can perform this function and then i can go from there. If i can get this to work, then i can go about trying to update our archaic user account process (which involves a lot of faxing of forms around and then a person to manually enter the data into AD) and streamline it with an InfoPath form.
Thanks!!!!
