CRM SDK Examples??

[Phil Adams]

Hi Peeps,
I am trying to do some custom programming for CRM, but alas i am only a
classic asp programmer.
Can someone help me by translating this into asp.net in VB instead of C#, i
can then get on as i think i am okay with the rest only not too clever with
imports etc.
This is in the CRM SDK under CRMIncident.Open Method.

Thanks In Advance

Few pointers

1) Remove all ; ';'

2) Change + to &

3) when declaring a variable
C#: string virtualDirectory = "mscrmservices";
VB.NET: Dim virtualDirectory as String = "mscrmservices"

4) C#: strAccountXml += "<name>Account Number 2</name>";
this means strAccountXml = strAccountXml +
"<name>Account Number 2</name>"

This is different, you have put some statics
dim strAccountId as string = "{38A03BA8-7C0B-487F-836D-9DAD2A64B0D2}"
where is it failing, what error? do you get?, did you debug

I am not familiar with this.
just a question: in the strAccountId do you have to have the '{' and '}'

Above is link to CRM, It is Microsofts attempt to join the CRM/ERP
bandwagon.
Although at the moment it is v1.0 and not avail outside the USA, It is far
the best system i have seen.
the SDK PDF is Attached maybe of help???

did you add the porper References and Imports
Project menu - Add References etc..

If you are translating this into VB.Net then you don't have to worry about
numbers 2 and 4. The '+' sign works for strings in VB.Net just like it does
in C# and VB.Net also supports the += operator. If you are converting this
to a standard ASP 3.0 page then you will need to perform numbers 2 and 4.
Good luck. Ken.
