When you double click on user and you are in AD properties page, can
you change the display properties in Organization - Department to
Organization - Section; Company to Division ? What I want is when you
are in Organization tab, I want Department to read as Section and
Company to read as Division. Is this possible?

You have to edit the attributeDisplayNames in the AD-Configuration.

1. Open Adsiedit from the support-tools
2. Open Configuration,cn=configuration,dc=your
Domain,cn=DisplaySpecifiers,cn=your Language Code,cn=user-Display
Properties
3. Open attributeDisplayNames

Here you can find all the attributes the user-object has and the text
that should be displayed in Active Directory Users and Computers.
Simply change the Display-Names of the Values.

The Language-Code is the Language-Code for your locales in Hex. You can
find your Language-Code in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ContentIndex\Language\YOUR
LANGUAGE\Locale

I hope I could help you.
