Posts 1 		HI,

I downloaded your software yesterday and firstly i must say I'm liking it a lot!

I have a problem though i'm using the Bulk Update to update a load of users Profile and Terminal Services Profile path using the %UserName% option so it would be \\ADTestPDC\Profiles\%UserName% expecting it to subsitute the %UserName% for the users actual User Name however it just inserts it as pure text so the actual profile paths read "\\ADTestPDC\Profiles\%UserName%"

Any help would be much appreciated

Cheers

Please enter the text as:

\\ADTestPDC\Profiles\<attr>sAMAccountName</attr>

Bulk AD Users uses a feature called XML Placeholders instead of %username%. I might look at also adding support for %username% in future as it's a common convention. The placholders method is only slightly more complicated though and it is a lot more flexible. See here see here for more info.

Hope this helps,

David
