Active Directory and asp .net
Mar 25 2008 5:49 PM
Hello,
I'm building a web app where I like to query my users from active directory.
The code I'm working on it works fine for a user where all the properties that I'm query are filled in.
I'm trying already for a week to check if a property is empty but I'm stuck.
I need a method how I can check if a property is empty so I can use a string like "property empty". after testing I bring the AD up-to-date.
I hope there are some specialist over here so I can find a solution for my problem.
Many thanks in advance.
Wim (starter)
