Hi,

I'm a complete Newbee on C# sharp, a real freshman so to speak and I could definitely use some help.

I've Managed to create a very basic website, using Webforms with Visual C#. I'm using Visual Studio 2010 and .NET 3.5.

For this site I created a Master page, on which all my Web Forms will be based. On every webform I want to display the username and the e-mail address of the users who will be accessing my site.

But I don't have any clue whatsoever how to perform a AD query from my Masterpage.master

Beneath is what I created so for.
- So where should I query AD?
- How would the code look like?
- Can I use my Toolbox for this?
- Username should be displayed at USer_Name (see code beneath)
- E-MailAddress should be displayed at E-Mail_adres (see code beneath)

Hi Uday,

First of all, thanks a lot for trying to help me out here.

I previously found the link ("How to get user Data from Active Directory")you're sending me, but I don´t understand it.

My biggest problem is, how to get stuff like this into my current code and where. Where should I put the the code in the web-form, do I have to place it between tags or something=

Please forgive me for being so ignorant, it´s just my first C#, normally I´m occupied with Exchannge Active Sync and stuff like that.

Cheers
Jan
