That is one way.
If you want to keep the "standard" ADFIND output format you
can also use the -oao switch which stands for ordered attribute output or the
"Jerry" switch.
Also with both CSV and OAO you can specify a "NULL" value
that you want ADFIND to write instead of a blank. So for instance say you want
it to actually write "<NULL>" you can specify
-csv "<NULL>"
or
-oao "<NULL>"
A personal favorite:
-oao "This space intentionally left
blank"

Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Null values in adfind results
adfind -default -f
"&(objectcategory=organizationalperson)(!attributename=*)" -csv should
do the trick.

I'm looking for null values in several attributes of user objects but the result only returns the attributes where a value is present. I'd like to have the output in some kind of delimited text file so I can import it into a spreadsheet.
Can adfind do that? I couldn't find a switch to specify returning null values.
