If each user potentially has different values for the attributes, then you
might need a script that reads values (like phone numbers) from a
spread***. I have an example VBScript program that updates the profilePath
attribute for users using an Excel spread*** linked here:
http://www.rlmueller.net/UpdateUserProfile.htm
The spread*** has one row for each user, with the Distinguished Name of
the user in the first column and the desired value for profilePath in the
second column. This can be easily modified to update other attributes. You
would have one column for each attribute to be modified, and you would
change the program to handle the additional columns of the spread***.
A program that creates a spread*** with the Distinguished Names of all
users in the domain in the first column is linked on the page I linked
above. You would then manually add the information in the other columns,
although it is easy to copy values in a spread***, or even sometimes
calculate them from other columns.
If it helps, I have spreadsheets documenting most of the attributes
available for user objects linked here:

ADModify.net might just be the ticket...
Scripting might be useful. LDIFDE might be of help as well.
Depends on what you are doing. Is it the same thing (like the address)
that will be inputed 500 times or is it going to be different for each of
the 500 users (like a telephone number). If that later is the case then
admodify.net will not help...

What would be the best utility to use to input/append AD user object data
to
500 existing users? We would like to input info for the phone # and a
few
other misc. fields into these existing user's AD objects. TIA ...
