ContactId in User table

Hi everyone,

I would like to know what's the use of that ContactId column you can see in the User table. I can see it trhough Eclipse IDE, I can display it in the search layout columns but I can't modify it through SalesForce interface.

I'm in Enterprise Edition, and that column would be very useful for my work... How can I use it, display it and modify it through SalesForce ?


Thank you very much

This is a standard SFDC field, which (I assume) is meant to link a user to a Contact, since it's quite general practise to include your own org as Account, and your own personel as Contacts.

To represent contact associated with Salesforce user, if the user is a partner user.
