Hi Praveen,

Unfortunately I didn’t have a chance to upload the project and don’t seem to have the source code with me. But in general the code in the post above does the trick.

What is interesting is that it still appears to ignore the privacy setting:

// create sharepoint user profile instance
UserProfileService MySPService = GetSPUserProfileService();

// retrieve
PropertyData[] fieldData = new PropertyData[1];
fieldData[0] = new PropertyData();
fieldData[0].Name = fieldName;
if (privacyValue != Privacy.NotSet)
{
fieldData[0].Privacy = privacyValue;
}
fieldData[0].Values = new ValueData[1];
fieldData[0].Values[0] = new ValueData();
fieldData[0].Values[0].Value = fieldValue;
fieldData[0].IsValueChanged = true;
MySPService.ModifyUserPropertyByAccountName(accountName, fieldData);
