Changing Font Sizes in MS CRM

Posted: 01 Mar 2004 07:04 AM PST

You can change a setting in the web.config file that will prevent the
IE buttons from being hidden. However, this will probably cause
confusion for your users as there will be 2 sets of menus & toolbars.

If you really need to change the font sizes, you should be able to do
this by modifying the CSS for the app. Otherwise, you'll need to make
changes to the underlying XSLT files which would be a pain and would
need to be replicated everytime you published form changes.

Is it possible to add a lookup field to the schema?

No, you can't add your own lookup fields (at least not without hacking it
into the metabase).

You could just go into the DB and manually remove the license from the user.
Not supported, but it's a lot easier than re-installing :)

Can Sales Outlook Client be accessed from Internet?

Posted: 27 Feb 2004 09:57 AM PST

Yes, that works for the accessing the web client, but you need to do a
lot more to allow access for the Outlook client. If you open enough
ports (read security hole) then you could expose Outlook as well, but
I would NOT recommend this.

CRM 1.2 very strange error!

Posted: 27 Feb 2004 08:59 AM PST

Dean,

When you install CRM, the user you are currently logged in as is
automatically added as a user in CRM. However, it is NOT assigned a
license. If you go into the web app and into the system settings, you
should be able to find this user in the root business unit and then
assign it a license and appropriate roles (though it should alread
have sys admin).

Matt

Thank you for your help.
Yes, I get this error. "User 1 ( *my user name* ) failed :
This user already exists in the system. Try creating a
different user."
However, I made a new user, gave it sys admin and gave it
a license. If I log into that account, I can run the CRM
programs. Go figure!

One more quick question... I believe CRM 1.2 can integrate
between Exchange server and the clients can use Outlook to
access all the CRM functions. Am I correct? If this CRM
can work with Exchange and Outlook, where can I read about
how to do it?
Thank you in advance.

Checkboxes & multivalues

Posted: 27 Feb 2004 07:15 AM PST

Yes, multi-select boxes would be nice. (And I think I
read some ISV had it.) But, I think you'll find that
booleans are not a bad way to go here. The problem with
multi-select is that it is hard to extract data from.
(The best storage model appears to be using bitmasks, but
that is tough to query on too.)

You can sell it to users by saying that if you implement
as booleans, then you can easily write an Advanced Find
query to "show me everybody who needs SQL Server and
VB.NET".

If you just create a new section or a new tab on an
opportunity form, slap half a dozen booleans in it, the
users will be fine with it. In fact, most users prefer
multiple booleans to a list box. It is usually faster to
click a bunch of buttons that are in your face, rather
than pore through a list of choices, holding down the
ctrl key to click, etc.

Another way to look at it: Do you want to know anything
else about their need? In other words, make EACH of them
a pick list, and have values like "Must have, Nice to
have, Not important", etc., which would allow you to
retain more information about the need.

Finally, if this is going to turn into some kind of sale
of these products, you could add each one they were
interested in as an opportunity product. (Although that
is a very ugly part of the GUI.) HTH.

can't open CRM user manager

Posted: 26 Feb 2004 04:43 PM PST

You need to set your IIS to host your CRM on port 80, IP have to be set "all
unassigned" to make the user manager work.
I reinstalled my SQL and CRM, now everything works.
Make sure all your SQL server related services starts with a "Domain user
account", Not the "local machine", Microsoft suggest you to create a user
with special permission for this. You can find more information on the SQL
books online.
Also if you running SBS 2003, because you running asp.net 1.1, and your CRM
is 1.0. You need to add "validaterequest = "off" " under the pages setting
in the web.config file.

JScript to clear value of Drop Down Field

Sorry, nothing else off the top of my head. You could always re-write the HTML for the entire control by using JS to access the DOM. It's messy, but I've had to do it before when I couldn't get JS to do what it's supposed to do.

Works 6.0 Problems after Installing SP2

Posted: 01 Sep 2004 07:44 AM PDT

Barry, I have read where SP2 can cause problems with a number of programs,
but haven't heard of anyone else having problems with Works. Never the less
it is not uncommon for MS to issue a patch that fixes one problem, only to
create another. Some advise waiting for MS to work out the bugs before
applying any new patch because of this. Here is a link that might give you
insight as to why you are having problems even though Works is not listed.
Hope this helps. DavidF

Rob, If I understand your question correctly, this is one of the

files under one instance of Works, while the new versions require separate
instances of Works. Don't throw away your copy of 4.5 as you may find that

Works Calendar 8 stalls on start

Posted: 30 Aug 2004 06:38 PM PDT

Hi Mike,

Perhaps replace the MsWksCal.wcd file with a fresh copy from
the Works CD, unchecking the Read-Only option, found on the
file>right/click>properties dialog box.

Before proceeding, save a copy of current file as MsWksCal.Old.

If it is possible, can you post that file to me, assuming it is not full
of private and confidential/personal appointments etc. I can then
investigate the cause of the problem for you.

Now, having saved a renamed copy of the previous file, you may
proceed as follows:


1. Insert the Works installation disc, and then press SHIFT to
prevent Setup from starting.

Note If Setup starts, exit Setup.

2. On the desktop, double-click My Computer.

3. Locate the Mswkscal.wcd file on the Works CD.

The default location of the Mswkscal.wcd file on the Works CD:

drive :\MSWorks\Common\CommApp\mswkscal.wcd

where drive is the drive letter of the CD-ROM drive.

4. Select the Mswkscal.wcd file, and then press CTRL+C to copy
the file to the Clipboard.

5. Locate the file MsWksCal.wcd on your hard disk.

the default location of the MsWksCal.wcd file on the hard disk is in the
following locations:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Works

NOTE: The Application Data folder is hidden by default. Go to
Tools->Folder Options->View->Show Hidden files and folders

6. When you have located the Mswkscal.wcd file on your hard disk, select
the file, and then press CTRL+V to replace the file with the version
that you copied from the Works CD-ROM.

Note When you are prompted with the question, "Are sure that you want
to over-write the file", click Yes.

7. Make sure that the new version of Mswkscal.wcd is not read-only: Use
Windows Explorer to locate the file, right-click it, click Properties,
and then clear the Read-only check box.

Restart Calendar.

CD's not reading

Posted: 16 Jun 2004 06:35 PM PDT

I think you're saying it reads other disks, but not the CD
for O2k and Office 97. Is that correct?

Will it read other MS application CDs? Publisher, whatever
else you might have?

What are the disks it won't read? Are they Application CDs
like 97? Or are they music, games, etc.?

If it's only 2 original (or copied original?) CDs it won't
read, then those CDs might indeed have problems that a good
cleaning might help. It's even worth trying to have someone
else's machine try to read them - sometimes it'll work so
they could be copied for you.
Check Google for how to clean CDs if you don't know how:
eg , never wipe along the write path, always wipe from the
inside to the outside, soft lintfree, detergents that can be
used, etc.. I've been able to recover a couple of
surprisingly scratched up CDs that way. If they're archival
copies, with printed adhesive labels, it's possible the
disks are beyond use due to chemical problems with some
adhesives that are used on the labels. Learned that the
hard way too! Info on that can be found at langa.com, other
places I can't think of now.

SP2 or SP3?

Posted: 16 Jun 2004 11:30 AM PDT

Hi Doreen,

Well, far as experience goes, I've had no problems with
either. Donwloaded SP2 shortly after it came out, and SP3 a
few weeks ago, not sure of the exact date but fairly
recently. At least in this location, one on XP Pro, the
other on XP Home, networked, I've seen no problems and a few
times identified (due to info found on ng's) things that it
seemed to have improved. There are a few improvements in
both of them, some added menu items here & there, pretty
simple but generally useful stuff. Most of the work in them
is behind the scenes, of course, so there isn't a lot of
obvious changes.
I do not game, but I do manage web sites, do video
editing for the public (ceremonies, etc), and write a fair
number of technical papers and reports both freelance and
government apps. So, there could be problems I wouldn't
have seen in other areas, so that's for what it's worth
info. SP3 does seem to have a decent rep though, and is
in general mundane to the casual user. The only apps I
haven t' used much since SP3 are Access and PowerPoint.

I'm still curious why you would want to have SP2 instead
of SP3 though, but that's your own business, not mine <g>.
I believe in the SP3 simply becuase it has more "fixes" in
it beyond what was in 2. Normaly what I do with things like
that is take note when it's released, whether there was a
beta or not, and then read the horror stories etc. that
occur which are attributed, rightly or wrongly, to the new
package. You have to keep in mind when you're reading the
horror stories that happy people don't write in - just the
unhappy, and as often as not, the perceived problem caused
by the pack is off base or they just have a gripe to air,
etc.. But when similar threads about similar problems start
to pile up, you can generally believe them and make your own
judgement whether to donwload it now or wait and hope for a
fix to the fix to be issued, which does happen on occasion.
At the moment I cannot think of anything in either that
would have an SP as a source.

Maybe I will Donny, but I won't go around insulting people who try to help
me, or pretend to be upset when people criticized people who do. And I
certainly won't be a name calling phony like you.

Office 2003 renames "My Documents" to username's Documents, why?

Posted: 14 Jun 2004 05:02 PM PDT

I'm afraid I don't know why your exclusion isn't working.

The "show folder owner's name" feature is introduced by Windows. The hidden
"Desktop.ini" file in the user's "My Documents" folder contains an Owner=
key which sets the display name.

So, if you make the line:

Owner=Pickles

And you then look at the parent folder in Explorer, you'll see a folder
named "Pickles's documents". Sorta silly.

See

They are *NOT* the 
Right. Sometimes you find both numbers on the same COA, as
in my case, and sometimes they are in separate places,
usually on the CD sleeves. In my case, they're together on
the same label, BUT it doesn't say which is which - it
wasn't until I installed Publisher that I figured out what
the seconds number was for.

Hi Cor,
 
That's quibbling.
 
This is not he point. He tries using to make an odt-file

the cases today, despite of the odt file format is very
similar to CSS. It's a pity.

No offense meant!

BAR CHART FROM COMMAND LINE

Posted: 25 Oct 2006 06:23 PM PDT

Hi All,

I am new to OpenOffice and was trying to create a bar chart with input
as '.csv' file. I have a perl script which gets the data and creates a
..csv file as below:

YES,NO,UNKNOWN
Monday,10,20,5
Tuesday,20,30,15
Wednesday,30,20,40

i also used system command : system ("oocalc test.csv"); to start open
office calc with table.

I would like to know of some ways of updating the perl script such that
when i execute perl script, open office calc is opened with the bar
graph. Can some body please give me some ideas on how it can be
implemented. Or is there any other way of automating the generation of
bar chart from csv files.

Thanks a lot for your time.

[discuss] dates [OT] Easter

Posted: 25 Oct 2006 12:22 AM PDT

OOo 1.1.5 can calculate Easter correctly for the Gegorian Calender
using the rule set of the Anglican Church. That formula is incorrect
when the Julian calender is used, or when one uses one of the ten or
so other rule sets for calculating Easter.

The formula for calculating Passover, using the rule set for
Rabbinical Judaism is relatively simple. {Once you get the monads
correct.] Calculating Passover using either the Karaite Rule set or
Samaritan Rule set is going to be, at best, a rough guestimate.

There are two different rule sets for calculating when Ramadan occurs.
Only one of them can be reduced to a formula that will work in OOo.
[There is no known formula that can have the visible new moon sighted,
before the astronomical new moon occurs. Yet that is what the rule
set used by a very influential Muslim country permits.]

It would be time consuming, but fairly simple to write a macro for
each of the rule sets for Easter, Passover, and the rest of the
religious Holy Days that change dates every year.
[Do one macro for each rule set, for each event, or one macro per
event, with the user having to select which rule set to use.]

[discuss] dates are never autoformatted correctly

Peter Hillier-Brook wrote: 

Peter, the default option for OOo is the issue. It takes the system
info with no chance of overriding. I use Linux and there is no easy way
to change the system date to YYYY.MM.DD. I have tried with no success
for years.

It would be nice to have the option to set a default format in the Tools 

Just checking out, there is no way to set the date in the Default Style,
at least in the version of OOo that I am using. At least in Writer.

Nor do I see a way of setting individual default settings in Calc when I
just tried. I ended up screwing up my spreadsheet as changing the
default date changed a lot of data that were not formatted as dates.

I believe that this is already a bug report or enhancement request.
