The Bulk AD Users application can make it easier for you to apply the update and it also produces an XML log file of the update which can be used to rollback changes.
For example, you might want to identify the user account you want to update in the CSV file by email address (mail attribute) rather than username.
As an alternative to this script, you might also to consider using the Bulk AD Users application (freeware) available on this website.
Rather than jumping in and solving both problems in one post, we'll start today with the problem of updating the attribute and then in the next post we'll look at some code we can use to process a folder of DWGs, opening, updating and saving each one.
