String Property Type

Active Directory Domain Services uses several different syntax types to represent strings. System.DirectoryServices uses the String class to represent all of the following syntax types. For more information about these syntax types, see the MSDN Library at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=27252.

  • Object(DS-DN)
  • Object(Presentation-Address)
  • String(IA5)
  • String(Numeric)
  • String(Object-Identifier)
  • String(Printable)
  • String(Teletex)
  • String(Unicode)

The following example shows how to read a string.

Dim address As [String] = ent.Properties("streetAddress ").Value.ToString()
Console.WriteLine(address)
String address= ent.Properties["streetAddress "].Value.ToString();
Console.WriteLine(address);
