How to update Active Directory Information the easy way?

Hello Missy,

The fastest and easiest way to update Active Directory's information is by using a third program like Quest or rDirectory through a web portal. With rDirectory you can easily delegate the updates to the end user's manager or Human resource. The rDirectory can be found on this link http://www.namescape.com/rdirectory.

You can also use the Wisesoft users Active Directory  to edit bulky information in excel or even on CSV. The link to get this from is http://www.wisesoft.co.uk/default.aspx. The best way so far to edit information on Active Directory is by filling excel with the user name's information then getting a VB that loads the information into Active Directory via a CSV format. All in all it  this depends on what kind of information you want to enter into the Active Directory.
