ipPhone=* works as it reports back a huge list<br />
However !ipPhone=* does not report anything<br />
<br />
I know there are a couple users with that value empty.<br />

OK, so I used your complete verbage of (objectcategory=person)(ob<wbr />jectclass=<wbr />user)(!ipP<wbr />hone=*) and that works!<br />
just using (!ipPhone=*) does not work and that is what I was trying.<br />
<br />
Thanks for the help <br />

If you did it like this (in ADUC) it would work<br />
<br />
(!(ipphone=*))<br />
<br />
...that would give you everything though<br />
<br />
(&amp;(objectcategory=person)(<wbr />objectclas<wbr />s=user)(!(<wbr />ipphone=*)<wbr />))<br />
<br />
for just users (see screenshot)<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
