Microsoft CRM - Bulk upload of pick list values

Microsoft CRM - Bulk upload of pick list values


Bulk upload of pick list values

Posted: 06 Apr 2005 08:23 AM PDT

Unsupported, but you can export your customizations to XML. Then add
the new items manually to your list (carefully), then reimport your
customizations.

It worked for us in an extreme case, but for only ~ 100, you should
probably just do it manually and avoid "coloring outside the lines"

Mail Merge in browser

Posted: 06 Apr 2005 05:03 AM PDT

CRM only ships with merge functionality in the SFO client. There are a variety
of reasons, but security is probably the biggest. Performing a merge process
requires automation with Word. This could result in a lot of security warnings
to the user which would not be desireable. Plus, many companies have locked
down poilcies which would revent this from working.

There are some mail merge add-ons available for CRM. It is also possible to
develop one yourself if you have the skills.

Hi,

In MS CRM you can use mail merge with the SFO-client and direct e-mail in
the browser. Now I'm using the c360 Search Pac for selecting the contacts,
but this only works when it is in a browser. I want to mail merge the
selection made with the Search Pac, but can only select direct email.

Is there a way I can use the mail merge function in the browser (and the
direct email in the SFO)? And can someone tell why this is, why just put both
features in the browser as in the SFO-client?

Adding the same information to multiple contacts

Posted: 05 Apr 2005 07:29 AM PDT

Dear "Matt",

c360 can do batch updates like this (and so will CRM 2.0.) You can
also create a rule that creates an activity (send letter activity,
e.g.) and then apply that rule to multiple people. (You can select
multiple people in an advanced find (or lead, or contact, etc.) grid
(hold down the control key to select multiple), and can then take an
Action (such as send email, or Apply Rule, such as "Send Letter A"...)

But I'd like to politely suggest that you may want to look at your
process. The attendance (of invited but did not attend) sounds more
like a recurring event rather than an attribute of a contact. If so,
then you are better off to NOT create a specific field on the Contact
entity to record their attendance.

If your goal is to send two different letters (one for the attendees,
one for those who missed it), then I just (a) create the two letter
templates (b) find the contact(s) to send them to in CRM, and (c) send
them the appropriate letter. Your activity history will then record
the fact that you sent them (which) letter.

If you create a custom field on each contact, you still have to somehow
search to find, and then update, each contact - that is an extra step
rather than just sending them the letter as you come across their name
in the grid...

I'd be particularly careful of adding custom fields to the contact
entity (especially if you are doing this for each event), because you
could run out of room (the 8000 SQL row limit is about 1000 bytes away
from the default installation.)

Integrating MS CRM with Commerce Server

Posted: 04 Apr 2005 01:17 PM PDT

If you plan on using Products in the CRM Quote/Order within CRM, then CRM needs
to have the products in it's product catalog. Without this, then it will be
difficult to use these objects. You could try using write-in products, but that
would make certain reporting tasks more difficult.

CRM out of the box does not support the customer specific product restrictions
you mention. However, I doubt you would expose the CRM UI to the customer due
to cost (each customer would require a license), so that may not be as big an
issue.

If the Orders will be entered via a different vehicle and then copied into CRM,
then the job is a little easier as it will be an integration process that loads
the order.

One of our goals is to ensure that customer orders can be managed and linked

experience would have to let them select a P.O. to have their purchase
invoiced to, for example.

Not knowing much about MS CRM, I'm guessing we would want to manage the
quote/contract/order from within the CRM product, but have it be integrated
to the product catalog in commerce server.

Are you saying the catalog has to be exported from commerce server to CRM ?

CRM mobile over GPRS

Posted: 04 Apr 2005 10:13 AM PDT

Hi John,

Yes, I am planning to sync over GPRS. However, I was going to recommend to
the client not to try and sync whilst in motion (i.e train , car etc.) due
to the possibility of signal drop out. This will prevent 80% of signal
drop outs, however, we have no control over the airtime provider pulling the
plug for maintenance.

In the event of data corruption, is it a simple case of re-syncing? or would
I need to restore the last mobile CRM backup on the PDA and then re-sync?

Kind Regards

Mike

Workflow Manager Adaptations or Workarounds

Posted: 03 Apr 2005 07:19 PM PDT

Dear Geek,

I always advise my clients to structure your workflow rules in layers,
to keep them very simple, and to make modifying them easy.

For example, I would create one manual workflow rule that has no
conditions, and one action: assign the object to a certain user.
(This, then, is the only rule you have to change if there is a new
person that comes into the same territory.)

This manual rule can be called in an action whenever the condition that
would cause you to assign something to that person is met. (E.g.,
State = "TX", action: Exec: manual: Assign to TX rep...)

That way, your rules can stay pretty static (except for changing that
one rule that assigns the object to the new sales person).

I do the same thing for the definition of territories. For example, I
have one rule for each territory. If a state changes from one
territory to another, I have to make that change in two workflow rules,
but then nothing else has to change.

So, bottom line - the structure might look like this:

Create Lead Rule:
Actions: Exec DetermineSalesTerritory

DetermineSalesTerritory:
Exec TestWesternRegion
Exec: TestEasternRegion
etc.

TestWesternRegion
IF lead.state = 'WA'
Action: AssignLeadtoWestern

IF lead.state = 'OR'
Action: AssignLeadtoWestern

If lead.state = 'ID"
Action: AssignLeadtoWestern

etc.

And then of course:
AssignLeadtoWestern
Action:
Assign Object: SalesGeek

Extending Grid Results in Personal Settings

Posted: 03 Apr 2005 07:01 PM PDT

So, you're saying you made an unsupported change to the form to modify the
values ??? haven't tried this one yet, but I don't know if it works (as you've
seen).

Check the UserSettings table to see if it's storing the proper new value. It's
possible there is an edit on the backend that is defaulting the value even
though you are posting what you want. The edit is probably defaulting what it
considers an "invalid" value and putting it back to 25.

I know I have been sucessfult in manually updating this value in the table and
having it work, but obviously the change won't stick if changes are made again
via the form.

Word window resizes after I "save as" pdf

How can I stop my Word window from resizing after I create a pdf?  I'm using "save as" pdf.  My current Word window allows me to view two pages side by side.  When I "save as" pdf, the pdf file is created as I expect, but the Word window reduces in size significantly and sometimes relocates to the upper left corner of the desktop.

My computer has a new monitor and a new video card.  Could either of these have something to do with the behavior?

Header area too large

Word 2013 changing Backspace input to Scroll+NextPage

Posted: 19 Aug 2014 12:10 PM PDT

I have one of my mouse buttons custom assigned to perform a backspace when pressed. This is useful for editing and works everywhere else, including on browsers, videogames, and other word processing software. I just installed Word 2013 and, instead of giving me a backspace, pressing the button scrolls me to the top of the next page. If I press it again, it scrolls me to the top of the following page. Even more bizarre, another mouse button I have assigned to the input "Alt+Right" scrolls me to the top of the current, and then previous page. These effects also look different from regular page-up and page-down.

I've only seen this behavior on Word 2013, so it makes me think there's some sort of command override in the software somewhere. All my other custom mouse buttons work fine. Does anyone have any idea what's going on and how to fix this? Thanks.

Word 2010 Quick Styles Don't Stick

Posted: 19 Aug 2014 07:27 AM PDT

I've read the other threads on Quick Style sets and haven't found an answer that works for me, so I'm going to ask again hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

I'm having an issue where some of the styles in a style set I save don't stick the next time I apply the style. I'm pretty savvy with Word: I've got Normal style set how I want it; I've made sure styles are "Based on" appropriate styles; etc. I have two different style sets I have to use, one for our customer and one internally. I set the styles, save the respective documents as Quick Style Sets, but when I close Word, reopen, and try to apply a set, some of the styles haven't stuck. This particularly happens with my "List Bullet Last" styles (i.e., last line of a bulleted list) at all levels: the bullets vanish from the style set, even though they're "Based on" the appropriate "List Bullet" style. Other style settings (e.g., Headings) seem to come through just as I've set them. Thank you.

Excel import from Word: Extracting data from merged cells in a Word 2010 Table using VBA

Posted: 19 Aug 2014 03:34 AM PDT

Hello!

I have a number of Word 2010 docs I am extracting information from into an Excel 2010 document using VBA macros.

The Word 2010 document has a table in with merged cells; both vertically and horizontally.

when I run the Excel VBA macro to extract the information from the Word table I get a

"Run-time error 5991:
cannot access individual rows in this collection becuase the table has vertically merged cells."

I am pointing to the cell in the Word table from Excel using oActiveDoc.Tables(5).Rows(4).Cells(2)-  the first two rows have their first cells merged.

This cell is merged with...
...this cell
This cell has the information I want.

So... short of opening each doc and manually unmerging cells is there a way in VBA to referance rows in a Word table when some preceeding rows have *some* of their cells merged?

Any help much appreciated,

Footnote numbering style

Posted: 19 Aug 2014 02:37 AM PDT

I would recommend to change Numbering format listbox to match the numbering formats that are used as regular numbering - thus you could define your own numbering styles (i.e. *), *-, *.) or choose from existing, not just choose the number style (i.e.. 1,2,3/a,b,c ...). It maybe is possible to somehow change it, however I did not find way how. (or at least change the custom mark edit box to have the same functionality as Number format edit box has in Numbering format form)

Hi,

There seem to be similar questions on here but not quite what I'm after...

I need to 'lock' floating images in my word document so that they cannot be moved or resized.

(My images are anchored to the page' not text and although the anchor is 'locked' the image can still be edited which I don't want)

I have tried the Developer 'Restrict Editing' tools but it seems that my images can still be changed - restricting editing seems to only apply to text(?).

I don't want to put the images in a header/footer for a number of reasons.

I usually use InDesign where I can simple lock and item and am new to Word so any help would be greatly appreciated

Microsoft Word slow to open Open Dialog Box

Macro to Pull Footnotes

Posted: 18 Aug 2014 10:36 PM PDT

Hi All -

First off thanks as always - always appreciate the advice given here.

Is there a macro available (or would it be possible to create one) that pulls all footnotes and preferably puts them in a table. I have documents (many) with 200+ footnotes that I want each footnote in a new row in a table. If that's not possible - at least copying them unformatted to a new document would be an okay start.

Again thanks!

I would like to remove "Comment [A1]"

Macros disappear

Posted: 18 Aug 2014 04:26 PM PDT

They were all stored in normal.dot.

I usually first record a dummy macro through the keystrokes and then manipulate them as I need them. Somehow, I find this a more convenient way to record a macro.

It is not only the macros that have gone. I use regular expressions, and Microsoft VBScript Regular Expressions 5.5 was also in my reference list for regex to work. The reference was also gone too.

I need to know how to set up black as my default type, color. It never occurred to me that it wouldn't be.

Posted: 18 Aug 2014 04:20 PM PDT

I am trying to make good looking documents formatted in a specific way. Typical of my trade, which is that of a writer so I need black type using Times new Roman 12 point regular I use Dragon NaturallySpeaking to communicate to write anything because I am disabled. I only have the use of one hand and all the fingers on it, so forgive me if this formatting is strange because Dragon can be cantankerous. Usually I go back and fix all the mistakes because that's the only way Dragon learns, but sometimes for emails I let it go. For my writing. I perfect, everything because I have a degree in English and a Masters degree in creative writing, but that's not the point point is to create a good-looking template and I have one on my Macintosh, so I know I can do it, but I had the same trouble with the Mac in that it was doing whatever color it wanted, but I think I've fixed it on my Mac because I've been using a Mac for about 25 years, whereas I've been using a PC for about three years so I'm not as good with it, and my writers template is not perfected so often I write on the PC move the document to the Mac formatted, then move it back to the PC. I would like to cut out some of these steps, because they are redundant, but I have been reluctant to give up my Macintosh, because I used the PC for Dragon NaturallySpeaking, although I am beginning to use the PC for most everything, including email and searching the web. But right now I need a good template set up the way that my profession requires. And of course it requires black ink. Thank you for any and all help.
Also, sometimes I pick up my email from my Mac, so I'm a little slower responding because then I have to find it on my Dell in Outlook, a dreadful program. Black is the default text color. I opened a blank page and started speaking into it and all the text was black. So I guess that is the default color, which makes sense

Posted: 18 Aug 2014 03:22 PM PDT

Win 7 Pro, Office: Microsoft Office Standard 2010 Version: 14.0.6129.5000(32bit)

I have odd issue of "Speak Selected Text" word feature not working on some computers. Other computers have exact same image and this feature works flawlessly.

Issue in steps

  1. I select/highlight the text to speak, and click "Speak Selected Text" quick access toolbar icon 
  2. Icon changes from to  which indicated it's speaking selected text, but it's not. Icon stays  , until i don't click on it.
  3. Sound on computer is working fine, and this feature works fine in Excel.
  4. Same issue if word is launched in Safe Mode.

Kindly let me know if anybody has any idea.

Thanks much

Need to combine several protected documents into one continuous multi-page document

Posted: 18 Aug 2014 03:15 PM PDT

Hello,

I need to combine several protected WORD documents into ONE continuous mufti-page document.

I am using Microsoft Word 200\7.  Documents I need to combine are password protected and must remain that way.

Documents were created with most recent version of Microsoft Word (but that should make no difference).

Due to protection on documents, I am unable to copy/paste identical format into new word document.

So, any ideas on how to accomplish what I need to do?  Am I attempting the impossible?

If I recall correctly, you need to delete and recreate the default GAL
to edit, but the best method is to try editing through adsiedit that
Bharat mentioned.

Authenticated SMTP Problem

Posted: 14 Mar 2007 09:26 AM PDT

Yes, and most of our users are able to, just a handful are not. I can find
no difference at all. The ones that are failing authenticate successfully,
but are then disconnected at the MAIL FROM command, in the same way that a
user would be disconnected if spoofing.

Exchange database size

The database "First Storage Group\Public Folder Store (ExchangeServer)" has 2
megabytes of free space after online defragmentation has terminated.

The database "First Storage Group\Mailbox Store (ExchangeServer)" has 120
megabytes of free space after online defragmentation has terminated.

These are the only 2 messages I see.

Can't see free/busy schedule with Outlook 2007

Posted: 13 Mar 2007 11:05 AM PDT

The Availability service will read the calendar directly from the store so you will want to make sure that F/B is working and that the user has information published. If you want a small test you can run Outlook /cleanfreebusy and then have that user create a test appointment so the client republished the F/B info to the store.

Hi
Outlook 2007 uses the EWS for free/busy requests, legacy Outlooks the
Fee/Busy system folder. If you have some problems then you should check the
way your Outlook connects to the EWS. You can see this by using the eMail
Autoconfiguration Test.

Exchange 2003 - Exchange 2007 Co - Existance

Posted: 13 Mar 2007 06:50 AM PDT

Hi
you can run Exchange 2003 and 2007 in coexistence.
Of course probably will need some permissions at higher level than your
server.
Some kind of global configuration must be done for your Exchange 2007 box.
(accepted mail domains, recipient policies,...)

If you don't get the permissions at this higher level your corporate
administrators have to install at least one EMC to help you with the
configuration.

Check out Sender Policy Framework at http://www.openspf.org/
It might help if the other ISPs honour SPF.

Posted: 11 Mar 2007 09:46 PM PDT

database maintenance also
it was scheduled 12am-4am and is now scheduled 1am-5am
since you are not having an issue with SP2/926666 version i'm wondering if
it is something with SP1/931978 version if someone who has applied that
hotfix can confirm

database maintenance, warning message interval, mailbox management - all
three shifted an hour ahead

Monitor RDP connections to my exchange server

Posted: 10 Mar 2007 02:16 PM PST

The only RDP recording solution available as of today on the market is
RecordTS that we developed. If you install it on the Exchange server, all
Remote Desktop connections will be recorded and you will be able to playback
them like playing back a video (and you can even convert that to WMV, Flash,
etc). Note that we record not only the screen but actually everything
happening at the RDP level (for example if the consultant transfer files from
the Exchange server to his local PC through RDP we get that as well and can
even get the file itself).
This goes beyond the simple windows auditing mechanisms suggested (as they
cannot for example give you the files the consultant may steal, the print
jobs, etc - we do).
Note I do not see RecordTS as a replacement for everything else (event logs,
auditing, etc; it is definitely a solution to COMPLEMENT all these and that
gives you a much easier way to see what happened: watching it back, exactly
as at the moment they were working on your servers.

Check it out at http://www.tsfactory.com.

Cheers.
