Since I use the tools I write for myself, it’s common for me to find things that need improvement.
I found myself taking the output from the JavaScript Export Tool and adding it to a Visual Studio solution file so I could more easily examine the JavaScript of a CRM installation. Since this was a bothersome step, I decided to automate that functionality and add it to the tool itself.
Version 1.1 will create a Visual Studio 2008 .SLN file containing references to the .JS files created during the export.
Please let me know if you have any other suggestions.

I have modified this tool to read configuration (server address, organization name, target directory) from config file. I scheduled windows task to run this tool regularly to backup all JS codes. A few times it saved me a lot of work.
I think that this functionality would be useful for many CRM developers so maybe you can include using configuration files in next version of this tool.
Great tool Mitch! I'm going to use it for the CRM installation at my company. We use SVN for .NET and Java projects. With your tool, it's easier to put the javascript under versioncontrol in the SVN repository!
Little suggestion : how about an import option? ;) If you need any help in developing, interested in a co-op?
Cheers!
David, I actually have a different tool for that. It exports all customizations from a command line. Let me polish that one up and I'll try to post it here soon.
Thanks, Mitch
Thanks.
Hey David,
I have that command line tool that exports all customizations ready to go. If you would like to test it, please let me know.
