Attribute Mapping using Java Script
I'm active visitor and answerer of several forums about Microsoft Dynamics CRM. I have seen a lot questions about mappings - how does it work. Mapping works only once - when new child record opened from parent record and when user just fills parent record lookup - of course mapping doesn't work. I've decided to fix this issue.

CRM Usage Report
One of customer wanted to have the possibility to see who and when was working in CRM. I knew that MVP David Jennaway had created such solution based on IIS's logs. No matter how I tried - I failed to implement it. Logs weren't written to log database. Also this approach doesn't work in IFD deployment scenario.
So I left this idea and begun develop own solution.

Custom workflow action which returns Opportunity Close object based on Opportunity object
All data you've input into the CRM is stored in opportunityclose record when opportunity is closed. And this data is inaccessible from workflow designer because opportunityclose record is child record for opportunity. And I'll try to fix it.

Setting attribute description as a tooltip for a field in entities forms in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0
There is simple way to set tooltip text for field on CRM form. You can do it with following script placed on OnLoad event handler of some CRM form:
It will be hard work to create detailed tooltips for all fields placed on form
using this script. I've decided to develop script which will set text of field's tooltip based on description of field in attribute customization form.
crmForm.all.<field name>_c.title = 'Tooltip text';
crmForm.all.<field name>_d.title = 'Tooltip text';
It will be hard work to create detailed tooltips for all fields placed on form
using this script. I've decided to develop script which will set text of field's tooltip based on description of field in attribute customization form.
