Is PowerShell an option? If so you can do something along the following.

Get-ADUser USERNAME -Properties * | Select SamaccountName,ObjectSid,ObjectGUID

    I can see what the objectGUID and objectSid are for a user, by going to: Active Directory Users and Computers -> The User -> Properties -> Attribute Editor, but it won't let me actually copy the values in string format! I can't even really copy the Hexadecimal value and convert it online since the hex characters are not given in order.

    I've tried using ldp.exe but I can't get it to find the user.

    Are there any other tricks to getting (and copying!) the objectGUID and objectSid of an Active Directory user?

    Thanks, I used Get-ADUser USERNAME to get the information (splitting the Properties up cut off the ends of the values).

    You can generally do a | -select -expand SOMETHING and get the item alone.

    Thanks! is objectGUID different from objectId that is returned in the Get-MsolUser cmdlet?

    @asgs That looks like a 365 command which I don't have access to so can't help sorry.
