  • I need an opinion on a new utility: Creating picklist options

    Posted on July 19th, 2006 mitch Print Print 1 comment

    I'm doing a CRM 3.0 installation for a small company and they have some Classification attributes  that help them describe there membership ( Accounts ).

    One of the Classifications has 63 options and rather than entering those one by one, or cutting and pasting the data into the XML file, I wrote a little utility that will generate the XML for me:

    I just paste this into the exported Entity XML file and re-import it. 

    The user interface is rather rough at the moment but it does the job. 

    So, I'm looking for opinions on its usefulness.  If you think you can use such a tool, add a comment on this post or drop me an email. Depending upon the response rate, I'll move it up or down on my development priority list.

    Thanks, Mitch
