    - cloning forms Hi, I come to MS CRM from the S**b*l world. If I am creating a vertical app that will use the same schemas for different purposes, I might need two different accounts forms, In the other app, we just clone the forms (applets in that world) and modify - then use security to decide who gets what. In MS CRM, do I make a copy of the ASP file, create a new ASP page and link it in, or what? Sorry if this is a bit vague - I am trying to make a quick demo up, and cannot find the nswer easily in the doc. Thanks, Tom Tag: Does you need a server to run MS CRm? Tag: 20044

    - MICROSOFT CRM URL I recently encountered an error when trying to launch the Microsoft CRM Outlook Client. Basically just navigating to any of the crm folder structure caused an error to occur. Per documented sources, I've removed and readded the COM addin but to no avail. I removed the CRM Outlook Client completely and when trying to install it now, cannot get pass the URL for the server. Any URL, whether it is the qualified or partial or even the machine name will fail and give me the following error: "setup was unable to find an instance of the Microsoft CRM Server components."

    - Crystal Reports Licenses I'm getting an error when I go to Reports. The error indicates that I should check to make sure I have enough Crystal Reports' Licenses. I have added a few users since I last ran a report, but now I've deleted a few users, and I still get the error. How can I check how many licenses I have, and how many I'm using? How can I setup users to be CRM users, but not Crystal Report license users? Is that possible, I think so because my System Admin told me we have 12-15 CRM licenses but only 5 Crystal Licenses.

    - Changing Manager for a User In the User Guide for version 1.2 it says on page 15: ============================================================================ If you add users according to the managers they report to, it will be easy to move them from one group to another by simply changing the name of the manager they report to. Changing the manager's name on a user profile disassociates the relationship with the current manager, creates an association with the new manager, and automatically moves the user into the new manager's business unit. ============================================================================ I have not been able to repeat this behavior. The Business Unit does not change for the user when I change Manager (Menu: Actions - Change Manager). I need to change the Business Unit manually. Am I doing anything wrong? Is there special setup requirements needed to get this to work? I also noticed that the roles are deleted when the Business Unit changes. Is this intended behavior, or is it a bug?

    - A wishlist... any ideas?? I have some things that I would like CRM to do. Does anyone have any ideas as to how they can be achieved? 1: When I add a filter to a report, there seems to be no way of saving that filter so each time I go in, I have to reenter the fields and values. Is there a way of saving this? 2: Can default share permissions be attached to records depending on who created them? For example, user "A" creates a record and automatically users "B" & "C" can share it. If "B" creates a record, only "C" has a share. Is it possible to also have a generic default for shares if this is not possible? 3: When looking at an accounts or contacts list (ie not actually opened a record), is it possible to have a right mouse click to go straight to an activity for a record rather than opening it (one click only).

errrr......no, thats what Microsoft Contact Manager for Outlook is for I
blieve, its certainly standalone-runable but not sure if comparable in any
shape or form to CRM.

CRM server standalone .....as i said no, but it will run "offline" if you
will, with SFO Client. Obviously with intent to go back online, not run
continuously seperate from the network...........

Then again, I/we run it as a server and client completely"standalone" with
VPC image, on one server (and identically on one performance laptop with
same images) as a partner of MS - but thats an expensive way for an end user
to run it what with the high performance requirement and software
requirements for the purposes of just one users needs!!!.

You need a web server for the crm web server. A SQL server for the CRM
database. You only need Exchange server if you want to send and receive
email into CRM. Note that you cannot use any other mail server other than
Exchange.

Beyond that you also need to be on an Active Directory enabled network.
