ActiveDirectorySearch

Values: True, False (Default)

When set to True, the control searches Active Directory users in the same manner as SharePoint does. The control requires the user to provide a search filter, by entering a value, before performing the actual search. If set to False, the control retrieves users and groups from those defined in SharePoint.

The following extra configuration properties belong only to MultiLookupPicker.

Delimiter

Values: A single character (Default is ‘ ,’ (the comma symbol without the delimiters)), or ‘\n’ without the delimiters, to place each item in a separate line.

Acts as the delimiter between a selection of multiple items. If left blank, the items are separated by a comma. ‘\n’ places each item in a separate line.

Prefix

Values: A single character or ‘\counter’ to add an increasing number.

Define a text character that will be placed in front of each item acting as a prefix; i.e.’•’. Use the ‘\counter’ command to add a counter (i.e. 1., 2., 3., 4.),

ButtonVAlign

Values: None, Center, Top, Bottom.

Sets the vertical alignment of the Browse / Search button. The use of this property doesn’t become apparent, until someone selects multiple values while using the ‘\n’ Delimiter option.
