How to find Branch number in Active Directory by C#

Question

Hi,

Could anyone provide any information about how to find Branch number in Active Directory(AD) account by C#?

For example, I have an AD account: abc\xyz. At my computer, when I login it, I can get my branch number from:

Control Panel -> System -> Advanced tab - > Enviroment Variables.

At the part of "User Variables for xyz", one variable of Branch has its value : 55.

My question is how to user C# to find this Branch number by using is my AD account. 

Thanks.

Answer 1

You should ask this question on the appropriate TechNet forum..

Cause the problem will imho be crafting the correct query (filter) using the System.DirectoryServices. E.g. Querying Microsoft Active Directory Using Microsoft .NET Framework Library.

Hi FugersonHall,

If you want to read user environment variable you can use Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable Method. If I misunderstood you, please let me know. Thanks.
