I am helpless now!
I need build a Sharepoint List as directory. I guess those info are stored in AD. So it is a viable solution to export those information from AD. However, I still can not find the way to do it.
Anyone please help me?

Add and save filtered views to Filter Favorites submenu so as to avoid creating the same filtered views each time when visit certain lists and you can easily edit saved filtered views in Organize Favorites Filters submenu.
More information please visit http://www.sharepointboost.com/filter-favorites.html
Thanks& Have a good time in this great web site!
