I would like to mass update a lot of our AD accounts which are missing entries in the email address field. We will be setting them to

Whats the best way for me to do this?

Sorry for the delay on this, but we've been trying to come up with a way to do this with Hyena. Unfortunately we weren't successful. Hyena has the Manage Directory Attributes function that allows you to change a value for multiple users, and it includes variables. The issue is you can only use one variable. In your case, you are using two variables: givenName and sn.

You would probably have to find a script somewhere to do this one, possibly joeware.net or somewhere.

OK thanks. If I use hyena to output the data to excel, then a formula to create the email address, could I use hyena to update the specfied accounts?

Not User Commander, but the future version of it will do this for you. It's in beta now.
