Web Sites Tab in IIS 6.0
Hi All, At my IIS 6.0, right click on Web Sites folder, select ASP.NET tab, my ASP.NET version is 2.0 and it's disable or gray out. So, I'd like to change 2.0 to 1.1 as default for CRM but I could not do it because dropdown box is disable. Anybody has any ideas how to make the change of ASP.NET version in Web Sites folder of IIS 6.0? Please advice and I'd appreciate it. That's odd. do you have the 1.1 Framework installed on the server? If so, then you could try re-registering the 1.1 framework. I'd suggest reading this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/...

How to install just the reports on CRM 3
i was unable to upgrade from SQL2000 to SQL 2005. so i backed up my CRM 3.0 tables, uninstalled SQL 2000 and then did a clean install of SQL2005, reporting services etc. I then attached to the CRM databases. CRM appears to work fine, HOWEVER, of course there are no reports defined. How can I reinstall just the reports? Is there a document that someone can refer to? thanks m I haven't seen a document, but you might try a 'repair' (add/remove programs) of the CRM installation, and let it re-prompt you for the location of your SRS.

Copy formulas #3
Hello, I have a forumla in a cell which I need to copy and paste to a variable number of cell directly below. Currently I have set up a little macro that copies and pastes the formulas to the 250 cells below. Unfortunatley I never know how many cells the forumla needs to be copied to. What I really want to check whether cell A1 contains data, if it does then pastes the forumala, then look at A2, if that contains data then paste the forumla and so on until the cell checked is empty. I know this is possible but don't know how to do it. Please help me. -- sgrech -----------------...

SUBSTITUTE with 3 choices

I have changed this SUBSTITUTE(MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,99),"th",) to this SUBSTITUTE(MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,99),"st",) which solves the problem, but i can only get it to work as that one line.

MS POS 2.0 and Office Account 2007
Has the integration been improved between these two applications since the SBA 2006 and POS 1.x were released? When I looked at it back it didnt do transactions, just batches. I am looking for full integration between the two products. Point of Sale 2.0 ships with Office Accounting 2007 for free. There is a very tight integration where detailed sales, item, customer, vendor, and item receipt information is shared automatically.

CRM 3.0
Hi, Does anyone know of version 3.0 will have cascading changes? What I mean is if you have an address change on an account and you need it to update all the contacts for that account. This can be important for large accounts with lots of contacts, especially if they move or have a name change after being bought out. Thanks!

VC6.0 & VC2003 linkage

If the API is C and memory is managed appropriately (i.e. memory allocated in the EXE is freed in the EXE and likewise for the DLL), then it should work.

WMP 9.0 Core dowload
I have WMP 9.0 in XP. When I visit a particular web site (one that I trust), I get a pop-up on every page where a video/music is played. The pop-up says that Windows Media Player Core should be downloaded and installed. There is no reference to the version of WMP. What is WMP Core? Is this pertinent to XP SP2? What does it do and are there any side-effects? The only reference I found on Microsoft was to WMP 10 and 11. Thank you for any info. What's the exact text of the message? It sounds bogus to me. There is no Windows Media Player Core, really. -- Speak...

Search in CRM
In all the " Find..." search box, whenever i typed in any keywords, the search is run based on "start with the keywords". Is there any way to change the setting, or by modifying some configuration variable to enable that? Urgent! Thanks! The "Quick Find" feature as we call it, supports wild cards; and a trailing wildcard is always assumed. So when you type in "Test" it is assumed to mean "Test*". You can use "*Test" to find all records with "Test" anywhere in the title. Aaron Elder ==============================...
