    - data structure of knowledge base I need to find the actual data for the knowledge base but when I open the SQL server database and look at the KBarticlebase table about a third of the data I need is there. The articleXML table holds some of the data in XML tags but most of the entries here say <Longtext> . Does CRM store the rest in an XML file or am I overlooking them?

    - Pickuplist type values from db Hi, I created a custom field of type Pickuplist using Schema Manager, publish it and add it in an Account record type form. Question: How can I make its values loaded from another table (custom table in SQL Server database) instead of using the Values tab in the Form customization manually? Is it possible to load the values for this custom field dynamically? Please help. Tag: Modifying Activities associated view Tag: 26588

    - SFO can't go offline. Hi, I have sync problem or offline problem with Sales with Outlook. My CRM production environments are built by the following: CRM Server: Windows 2003 English + CRM Server 1.2 English SQL Server: Windows 2000 English + SQL 2000 Server English Client: Windows XP Pro English + Outlook 2003 English + CRM Sales for Outlook English When I click the "go offline" button from the CRM toolbar in outlook I got this error message "Unknown error. Please try again later. If the problem persists contact the system administrator". My SFO are working fine with all the function, Lead, Contacts and etc.. In fact, I have applied the MS CRM 1.2 Outlook Enhancement hotfix to my system, but still can't help. I´ve read KBA 831190 from Microsoft describes this problem in CRM 1.0, and it says there that this issue is already solved in CRM 1.2. Do you have any idea on this issue?

    - isv.config customization Hi, I have been experimenting with the isv.config file to create links to external websites etc but have a couple of queries. Is it possible to create buttons in the isv.config file to link to various areas of CRM. For example to create a button in the Case window called "Resolve" which would link straight to the Resolve case window, or a button that would allow me to create a phone call with in a case with one click? Another quick question while I'm here: Ive changed the layout of some of the forms in CRM successfully but is it possible to customize the Resolve Case form? Any help with these issues would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ed Barrett Tag: Modifying Activities associated view Tag: 26585

    - Syncing Mobile CRM on the internet Hi Everyone, Ive got a curly question. I am currently testing the capabilities of CRM mobile, and we are wanting to allow remote syncing of data when a person is off site, the same way activesync does for exchange. Now I've got it to work. (Sort of) The big issue is with a split DNS. Internally, when the pocket pc is in the cradle, Initially I couldnt get it to sync with the CRM server ( internally seen as abc.mycompany.com which maps to an internal ip via internal DNS) I had to add *.mycompany.com as a work url exception to get it to work.. Thats all well and good, but now when I am offsite, and connect to the internet via GPRS connection, and open Mobile CRM on the pocket pc and try to sync, it doesnt work. (it keeps popping up with Connection unavailablePlease retry ect, but I can hear lots of data going back and forth, and it does actually send changes, just doesnt receive new ones) If I then go into the work url exceptions, and remove the setting, it will then sync properly, with no "Network unavailable please retry" type errors! I've fiddled with the connection settings, but have not found a solution. Anyone here have any advice? Thanks, Cameron Tag: Modifying Activities associated view Tag: 26576

    - Error - CRM Setup could not validate SQL Server I am trying to do a reinstall of CRM 1.2 onto an SBS2k3 box. In the uninstall of CRM I left the databases intact as I will be reconnecting the new CRM 1.2 installation to the existing data. When I try the install, I get an error saying : Microsoft CRM Setup could not validate this instance of SQL Server at the "Select SQL Server" screen. I have selected the SQL server from the list (which is local to the machine) and have "Connect to existing databases" (though I get the same error if I select "create new databases"). I saw the previous thread about SQL requiring a reinstall if you have changed domain functional level, however, I wouldn't think that this would apply here, as this was not necessasry - CRM / SQL had been working before this on the machine. any help would be great, thanks Tag: Modifying Activities associated view Tag: 26573

    - Access Security does not work Hello, We are are on CRM 1.2. The security settings don't seem to work fully. For example, I have setup a security role called "Field Sales". One of the access rights is to be able to read only user's own records for accounts and quotes. The icon with only one "pie" on it. But neither seem to be working because users are able to see every account and every quote out there. But if I revoke read access fully, it seems to stop them from seeing quotes and accounts, this is in-line with the documentation. The moment I switch on the read only for user's own records everything is visible to them. There are no teams setup in the system. What is the issue here. I seem to have this issue in both Test as well as Production servers. Thanks Ramesh Tag: Modifying Activities associated view Tag: 26569

    - SQL server problem Customer just installed Sophos Anti Virus software on their SBS 2003 server that was running CRM, and now there is a problem with the SFO clients. The Sophos software installs a SQL svr instance. Is there any way of connecting the SFO clients to find the default crm sql svr instance on the server. When I try to run the server sql instance from the client sql svr manager, I get an "access denied" error - presumably because it is unable to cope with the second sql svr instance on the server. I recommended the Sophos to the customer - so don't want to have to now uninstall it.

    - Custom Menu - Opening a url and passing field on current form I want to create a button on Oppurtunity Form that opens a url and passes current user as part of the query string. I am able to create the button using isv.config file. Someone had earlier posted code below regarding a similar scenario. 1. they didnt say where to place the htm file. i have saved it in root of crm server...wwwroot when i try to open the url, it gives an error ... 'windows.opener.crmForm' is null or not an object. Does any one know how to fix this ? OR know where to place the htm file so it know what crmForm is ... OR A different way to open a url .. and pass a value from a field on current form. Thanks You won't be able to actually pass values up to the window you pop from CRM, only the OTC and ID get passed in the QueryString. If you don't want to do this by calling the platform, here's how you do it all client-side code. Just paste this code into an HTM file and call it from the isv.config: <html> <head> <script language="javascript"> function window.onload() { oForm = window.opener.crmForm; sCity = oForm.address1_city.value; sState = oForm.address1_stateorprovince.value; sZip = oForm.address1_postalcode.value; window.navigate("http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp? city=" + sCity + "&state=" + sState + "&zipcode=" + sZip); } </script> </head> </html> Tag: Modifying Activities associated view Tag: 26526

    - Question about Status Reason field I am looking into what the Status Reason field is used for in relation to the Account object. There are two default values, Active and Inactive. I want to add values so that when an Account is inactive, we can state the reason that is inactive. I can add values to the Inactive state without a problem, but then how do I choose any of the values that I defined since when an account is Inactive, I cannot edit any of the fields? I can define a default value, but that again is of no use, because I can't change it. This seems to be a bug or oversight on the part of the CRM developers.

    - Queue problem and incoming email directed at crm I have CRM setup in a test domain fine mostly but asides from replies from SFO to a test account, I dont think all aspects of email routing is fine - but the email router must be least part working in order to be able to store CRM history and email out. I could be wrong on this! I can send emails from CRM to the test account ( not a crm user, but has been setup against a account/contact) and they show in the contact activity history. I can see the replies on the CRM test user in SFO (so they get as far as the account used by CRM), but they do not show in CRM against activity for contact. If I promote to CRM it responds that a duplicate MIGHT exist. I believe this should not be necessary anyway?? Surely you should not need SFO in order to promote emails into CRM - but I have seen solution 860941. Per (857239) I have checked that I can reach the site on the email server that should be verification that router install was succesful. It actually brings up a kind of XML format on the browser. The only thing I can think is, that at the MOMENT for lack of IP problems, I have had to configure CRM on 8080. I know this is a problem with the fact generally CRM has been designed as the default web site originally and will want to put it back eventually. Maybe I should test with it back. I have certainly found that MSCRM Mobile doesn't like it one bit. Similarly I have a test queue I have setup to the letter and that does not show either, I can create cases in CRM and assign to the queue - but cannot get emails sent from a test "non" crm user account into the queue. (A test queue user, disabled account, crmemailenabled, and with nominated self mailbox rights etc). Of course I am using an email test customer that exists in the contacts area. I am seeing the same problem as the "replies" aspect so no doubt it comes under the same bracket of problem. Maybe its the port aspect. I was wondering whether the "convert all emails" option as opposed to just those applying to crm contacts might have effect - but how could that for the queue problem since it's pretty much a user setting I believe. I wonder if anyone can shed any light on what the "server end" config bit is here, as either the manual forgot to mention it clearly or I just can't remember. I have certified in MSCRM apps pro and installation course but I'm still finding it a bit much at the moment and need to refresh having just studied and passed the install course (somewhat flushed what I had learnt about apps). Maybe its just something about this test domain configuration which will iron out when its reinstalled live on a production Exchange Server?

    - Import/publish customizations programmatically (for picklist updating, e.g.)? While you can query picklist values with CRMCustomization's RetrievePicklist method, there is no corresponding "setter" method or any other supported way to update those values programmatically. Mainly, I think, this is because picklists are contained in form XSL and thus must be published before taking effect. I can deal with that. I'm still seeking a programmatic solution, unsupported though it may be. The idea actually applies more generally than to just picklists: programmatically publishing customizations. But my immediate need is to periodically -- and automatically -- update picklists in CRM from sources maintained externally. During configuration for our customers we often apply the technique of manually editing (very carefully!) the customizations XML and then importing/publishing that, especially for long picklists and/or those that appear in multiple forms (e.g., state and country picklists to replace the standard text fields). My complete programmatic solution would incorporate this: 1) export customizations, 2) modify the customizations XML, then 3) import/publish those customizations. Obviously, step 3 is the major hurdle. Anyone with an angle on this? Thanks, Chris Rogers Customer Effective, Inc. Tag: Modifying Activities associated view Tag: 26441

    - changing SQL database location Hello newsgroup! Does anybody know if and how it's possible to change the database location of an existing CRM installation? I couldn't find any suitable information regarding this topic. We've made an export of the 4 existing CRM databases, imported them into a new SQL server on different hardware, configured all permissions that we could figure out and changed the SQL server name within the CRM configuration. When starting CRM web console, all available items can be seen and read, but neither a change of an existing entry nor a new entry of whatever kind is possible. A message pops up "Error. Please contact your system administrator". Nothing more that would tell where to look for the problem. Does anybody know what needs to be done to get it running? Is it possible anyway? The old SQL can still be used if the SQL server name is changed in CRM. Thanks for any idea and advice. Ingrid Tag: Modifying Activities associated view Tag: 26440

    - CRM Service modue for internal heldpesk use is useless??? Hi, I went through the newsgroup looking for an answer to my question. We find it very strange, if not amazing, that whenever you want to use the Service module of MSCRM for internal helpdesk purposes it does not work. The queue which will have to set up will only be fed with emails from outside, the router does not pick up internal email. In other words, colleagues(non crm users) can not send email to a queue. In my assumption that would imply that you can only use CRM for support issues with external contacts. Any ideas if there is a way to do this? Without having to set up a child domain? Thanks, Michael Tag: Modifying Activities associated view Tag: 26436

I have tried the unsuported fix involving:
http://crmserver/tools/viewEditor/viewManager.aspx?id=
00000000-0000-0000-00AA-000010001899

The view opens fine but I am unable to save as is or make
changes... I get the message "the Item Id is invalid."

Please help

Make sure you include the braces around the view ID GUID.

http://crmserver/tools/viewEditor/viewManager.aspx?id={00000000-0000-0000-00AA-000010001899}
