I have the same issue as Abi when I try to query the postOfficeBox :

SELECT *
FROM OPENROWSET(
‘AdsDsoObject’
,’ADSI Flag=0×11;Page Size=10000′
,’SELECT postOfficeBox
,sn FROM
”LDAP://FOOBAR/DC=FOO,DC=COM”’)

Could not convert the data value due to reasons other than sign mismatch or overflow

Have any idea ?

I’ve wondered about modifying Active Directory using an SQL query myself but I haven’t found a way to do it and I’m not sure if it’s even possible.

I was wondering, how can I populate a table and then edit the data from Active Directory, so by changing values in a field, I can then update it and Active Directory will be modified, Its so I can manage AD from a website I am building for a school project!

Thanks,

Lawrence

when I include this in my query I get the error Cannot get the current row value of column “[ADsDSOObject].otherFacsimileTelephoneNumber” from OLE DB provider “ADsDSOObject” for linked server “ADSI”. Could not convert the data value due to reasons other than sign mismatch or overflow.
