I am trying to use csvde to export information from Active Directory
and everything is working fine except for the street addrress. Users
with a single line street address export without any problems - I can
view the address in the output file. When I look at users with
muli-line addresses the addresses show up like the following line:

X'3833333720477265656e204d6561646f7773204472697665204e6f7274680d0a0d0a534152434f4d2052656465706c6f796d656e742043656e746572'

How can I export the multi line address to file instead of this
string?

Thanks

Jesse
 
The output string you are seeing should be Base64 string. It is used to
encrypt formatting and special characters into a string that can be
reimported. This is also true for ldifde. If the text file had two liines
then the new line character would be in the csvde ouput and when you
imported it you would only get the first line and an error on the second.
