Doing anything powerful while editing a text file usually isn’t handled by basic programs like Notepad. If you’re like me, you spend a lot of time dealing with files and text files are no exception.

I think so, and I hope you do too. Id: "21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D",įinally, if we got this far you may have guessed that we don’t really need lookupObject and we can instead simply declare it inline, like this: All you C# folks may find that it looks a lot like automatic initializers. Now to use JSON, we can declare our object in one statement. We could simply do this:Ĭ_userid.DataValue = Looking at the code like this may make you consider whether we actually need the lookupObjectArray variable at all, and in fact we don’t. JavaScript also allows to use the curly braces to declare an object, as shown here: Instead, you can simply use the square brackets, like this: In fact, many JavaScript gurus recommend against it. First, you don’t have to use the “new Array()” syntax to create an array. I’ll post the same code block getting smaller each time so that you can see what I’m doing.
I won’t waste your time explaining what the JSON site can explain to you, but we can shorten our code by using JavaScript Object Notation. Long story short, there’s another notation called JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) Now that code comes from the SDK, and is intended to allow people to follow along and understand what’s happening. LookupObject.id = "21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D" Ĭ_userid.DataValue = lookupObjectArray Ĭ_userid.ForceSubmit = true Well, I’m going to quickly show how to take that to the next level to keep your life (actually, your code) clean and concise.įirst, let me post a refresher of the SDK code to set the value of a Lookup field: You may recall that I had previously posted and explained how to set the value of a Lookup field in CRM 4.0. For this post however I just wanted to drop a little something for everyone, so here goes. If I can keep my focus I would expect many new blogs posts about CRM 2011 as well as some CRM 4.0 blog posts that I’ve been meaning to get out the door. Since my last post a lot of things have changed in my life, so my apologies. Yes, some time has passed since I last posted a blog article and yes, I could say that it won’t happen again but I don’t want to make any promises.
