Add extra colum keeps empty

hello, i've added colum last logon active directory. i've done following method. go adsi edit -> configuration -> cn=configuration,dc=<domain>,dc=<domain> -> cn=displayspecifiers -> cn=409 -> cn=organizationalunit-display on attribute page properties go extracolums , added following line: lastlogon,last logon,1,130,0 now colum shown in active directory shows no values. ideas? regards, remco hi, that's because of value type. it's "integer" , extracolumn attribute allows displaying "string" values. so, displaying in column within aduc integer values not possible. need use there "string" values. edit: however, displaying lastlogon or lastlogontimestamp doesn't make sense becuase values displayed in long integer 64 format. basicly sayin, unreadable humans :) it's better use powershell or adfind translated readable format  regards, krzysztof ---- visit blog @ http://kpytko.wordpress.co...
