Error When Deploying Web Applications in CRM 4.0
If you’ve written a web application that you’ve that utilizes the CRM web service and try to deploy it, you may receive the following error:
‘Microsoft.Crm.WebServices.Crm2007.MultipleOrganizationSoapHeaderAuthenticationProvider,
Microsoft.Crm.WebServices, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35’ doesn’t exist.
The issue is that the application cannot find the Microsft.CRM.WebServices library. I’ve seen a few ways to solve this error. Credit goes to Wes Weeks on finding these:
1. Add the following code to your application’s web.config file:
<assemblies>
<clear/>
<add assembly=”*”/>
</assemblies>
2. Copy Microsoft.CRM.WebServices.dll from the CRM web root bin directory (For default web site installations, this would be c:\inetpub\wwwroot\bin\) to the Global Assembly Cache (C:\windows\assembly\)
3. Copy Microsoft.CRM.WebServices.dll from the CRM web root bin directory to the bin directory for your web application.
So is any one of these methods better than the others? Well, I think it depends, although I’m no .NET expert. I’m not a big fan of #1 – it seems almost like carpet-bombing.
I think either #2 or #3 would be your best options. If you’re going to have just one web application, then copying the assembly to your app’s bin directory would be fine. However, if you’re going to have multiple web apps, them adding the assembly to the GAC would prevent you from having to add the assembly to each application’s bin folder every time you deploy a new one.
=======================
2. Use LinkEntity for relationship lookup retrieval details
3. For FetchXMLBuilder : uncheck the checkbox at the first place(use credentials of login user)
Go with administrator, swayam1,protitan
4. multiselect lookup
fileterlookup
relationship
mappings
5. iisreset
restart microsoft crm asynchronous service

WIndows service issue:
Installer file not found during installing windows service using installutil.
Just rightclick on design of service page. Select “Add installers”
Then another file gets created having two controls on it by default.
ISSUE:
Remove InstallState file because there are no installers.
serviceProcessInstaller
Account: Localsystem
GenerateMember : true
Modifiers : Private
Parent : ProjectInstaller
———
ServiceInstaller
GenerateMember : True
Modifiers: Private
Parent: ProjectInstaller
ServiceName: CacLicenseVerifier
StartType: Automatic
It sounds like you didn’t create an installer for your project. Within your
project add a new Installer class (it’s an option in the VS.NET “Add Item”
list). To that installer add a ServiceInstaller and a
ServiceProcessInstaller (both listed in the Components browser). Set their
properties (the service name of the serviceinstaller must match the name of
your service) and then recompile and re-run InstallUtil. You shouldn’t see
the message about “No public installers” and you should see your service
added to the list of available services.

http://jianwang.blogspot.com/2008/04/how-to-format-number-fieldinteger.html
There is an interesting topic on the CRM Forum about how to format an integer field without commas. For example, if you type: 123456 in an integer field, you may see 123,456 once it loses focus. CRM automatically add a ‘,’ between 3 numbers. There’s a global setting to get rid of it, however, it will get rid of all integer field format. How about if you just want to remove the format for just one field?
As you may know, MSCRM uses htc files to format the different type of input fields as same as email address etc, see my another post.
If you want to get the value of an attribute, in CRM we use: DataValue, e.g: crmForm.all.new_number.DataValue;
Notice that the DataValue is the real data saved in the database.
However, if you want to get the formatted value, you may use this:
crmForm.all.new_number.value;
So the trick is give the DataValue overwrites the value property.
Put the following code into the entity’s onLoad() event, and the same code puts into the field’s onChange() event.

if(crmForm.all.new_number != null && crmForm.all.new_number.DataValue != null)
{
crmForm.all.new_number.value = crmForm.all.new_number.DataValue;
}
if(crmForm.all.new_number != null && crmForm.all.new_number.DataValue != null){ crmForm.all.new_number.value = crmForm.all.new_number.DataValue;}

if u r placing dlls in wwwroot\bin folder then those dlls should have “Network” and “Network Service” read permissions.Otherwise access denied error will be shown in eventviewer(run -> eventvwr)
===
section change properties go to formatting tab default is Two columns(1:1) means two columns will be in one row.
Select a field in a form
click change properties
go to formatting .. Default selection is one column
make it as two column. Now the column occupies the entire row and moving the second column into next row.
if u dont want to increase the size and u want (one column in one row with the column shouldnt occupy the entire row) then change properties go to format tab then make it as one column.

How do I send email to entities other than account, contact, leads and
users?
I am trying to use a CRM queue for support. The e-mails to a particular email address go into this queue. A user accepts the e-mail. They open it and attempt to reply to it inside CRM. The CRM system will not reply to the message, it seems, because there is no record of the user in the CRM system.
Solved… I had already looked for a setting to fix this multiple times. One last time I checked the System Settings and on the Email tab there is a checkbox for “Allow messages with unresolved e-mail recipients to be sent.” Check yes and it clears up the issue, amazingly enough. 😉
public bool SendEMailK()
{
CRMService.activityparty fromParty = new CRMService.activityparty();
fromParty.partyid = new CRMService.Lookup();
fromParty.partyid.Value = new Guid(“1D15E6EC-6F81-DD11-8D2E-0003FFDADD5A”);
fromParty.partyid.type = CRMService.EntityName.systemuser.ToString();
fromParty.partyid.name = “First name Last name”;
CRMService.activityparty toParty = new CRMService.activityparty();
toParty.partyid = new CRMService.Lookup();
toParty.partyid.Value = new Guid(“00E100BD-0CED-DD11-B90A-0003FF5A0FAB”);
toParty.partyid.type = CRMService.EntityName.contact.ToString();
toParty.partyid.name = “JagFirst JagLast”;
CRMService.email email = new CRMService.email();
email.from = new CRMService.activityparty[] { fromParty };
email.to = new CRMService.activityparty[] { toParty };
email.subject = “Subject of email”;
email.description = “Description of email”;
Guid emailId = _service.Create(email);
CRMService.SendEmailRequest sendRequest = new CRMService.SendEmailRequest();
sendRequest.EmailId = emailId;
sendRequest.IssueSend = true;
sendRequest.TrackingToken = “”;
_service.Execute(sendRequest);
return true;
}
Instead of those lines
I want to write
Toparty Emailid= ambatisreedhar@gmail.com
FromPartyEmailId = aaa@gmail.com
How to write the code now?
I don’t want to send to contact ,user entities.
Deepak Gupta told me that in system settings Email -> Allow unresolved mails to yes we can send mails to any mail id like gmail etc.
It is working.
In the email I don’t want to mention user entity or contact entity. Just in a webpage I will type email address and if I press on SendEMail button it should go to that email .
How to achieve??
Thanks

ok. u know how to do filtered lookup???
friend says:
hmmm…its not supported…
friend says:
One way is create you own custom lookup page and display that on click of the lookup icon
friend says:
Unsupported way: you have to make some modification in CRMWeb\_controls\lookup\lookupsingle.aspx page of CRM
friend says:
Got the second method from CRM community site… Please google. I dont have the exact link now

I followed the below approach
state city concept : http://advantageworks.blogspot.com/2008/02/pseudo-filtered-lookup-dialog-in.html
Lets assume that in asp.net web application
we have state dropdown based on the selection of the state its relevant cities are populated in another dropdown.
I used filtered lookup in MSCRM
I created three entities State,City,PlaceHolderEntity
In state .. I have one attribute by name Jagstate
In City … I have CityName attribute and created n:1 relationship with State and added on the form and view.
In CityLookup view clikc on “Add Find Column ” and added State
In PlaceHolder I created n:1 relationship with state and city (relationships names are stateid and cityid) and added on form and view
On PlaceHolder Form onload I added the below code
document.FilterLookup = function(source, target)
{
if (IsNull(source) || IsNull(target)) { return; }
var name = IsNull(source.DataValue) ? ” : source.DataValue[0].name;
target.additionalparams = ‘search=’ + name;
}
On Field State Onchange I added the below code
document.FilterLookup(crmForm.all.wi_stateid, crmForm.all.wi_cityid);
