    CRM 4.0 – Update Rollup 2 Released!

    Just received an email from Microsoft informing me that Update Rollup 2 is publically released. This rolls up a number of more fixes for CRM 4.0. One of the fixes is one I reported to Microsoft  for CRM 4.0 which is (was):

    Advanced Find - Related Data Not Showing

    Steps to reproduce the error:

    -Go to Advanced Find
    -In the Look For drop-down select Service Activities
    -Enter a search query, eg: Status Equals Open;Scheduled
    -Click Edit Columns
    -Click Add Columns
    -In the Record Type drop-down select an associated object eg: (Site) Site
    -Tick one of the Site fields, eg: Name and Click Ok
    -Click Ok to close the Edit Columns window
    -Click Find
    In the search result view the Name (Site) column is not populated. Dam. Bug found. … but now fixed!! yay!

    To get a hold of the Update Rollup 2, head over to the link below:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=aa671769-61e9-45c4-919f-c88199aa4241&displaylang=en&tm

    Apply to test environments first, and then roll out to your production environments when testing completed.

    Great to see Microsoft released this so quickly after rollup 1. Good work.

    XamlPad - Create simple XAML files

    XAMLPad is a lightweight tool provided with the .NET Framework 3.0 SDK to quickly create simple Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) files. To find the application you need to either browse to it on your computer or get a hold of it from the .NET Framework 3.0 SDK.
     
    It provides a split screen where the XAML code can be typed manually at the bottom and then immediately previewed in the above XAML renderer, to let you know what it all looks like.
     
    Below is where it is located. Note: I am running Windows 2008 Server. If you can't find it, then I suggest you get a hold of the .NET Framework 3.0 SDK.

    There is also a number of different versions on the Internet where people have extended the basic version to include more functionality as well. Quick search and you probably will come across them.

    Enjoy!

    Find a Column Name within your SQL Tables

    Below is a piece of T-SQL script which can help you find a column name within your user tables in SQL Server. Tested with SQL Server 2005.

     

    SELECT      tab.name  AS  TableName,

                col.name  AS  ColumnName

    FROM        dbo.sysobjects  tab

    INNER JOIN  dbo.syscolumns  col

    ON          tab.id       =  col.id

    WHERE       tab.xtype    =  'U'       -- User Table

    AND         col.name  LIKE  '%geek%'  -- Column Name you're looking for.

    ORDER BY    tab.name

    Enjoy!
