crosspost from http://blogs.msdn.com/rextang Here I provide 2 small Windows 7 tips that bothered me days and decided to solve it. well, actually they are just setting problems. First, in Windows 7, now the default option for Windows Explorer is to not show the folder list when you open or get into a folder, which is different with that in Vista. I’ve used to have the folder list in left pane so that I can clearly know where I am, therefore I decided to put it back. it’s on the Tools –> Folder...

crosspost from http://blogs.msdn.com/rextang This just spent me couple hours to find out, that you won't be able to install TFS 2008 SP1 on SQL Server 2008 SP1 by just following the Installation Guide. Even you've installed SQL Server 2008 and applied SP1, and followed Installation Guide to slipstream TFS 2008 Installation media with TFS SP1 bits, you'll still not able to install TFS, installer will keep telling you that your SQL Server is incompatible!

crosspost from http://blogs.msdn.com/rextang # Remove an account in a machine which cannot logged in due to password forgotten Just tried to re-activate some of my old groove accounts in my other PCs and found that I forget the password set long time ago... (normally inside MS we had internal password policy that we need to change password every few months, this included MSIT managed Groove Server accounts.) As I am able to save my account file from other computers with the latest password set, I...

crosspost from http://blogs.msdn.com/rextang It seems worked while CRM 3.0 that one can pass custom variables via URL’s querystring and use it while form’s onload event. but it’s not worked in CRM 4 by default now. to be able to do this, you have to tune the registry. Create a DWORD registry key named [DisableParameterFilter] under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRM], set the value to 1 , and the do a iisreset, this enable the url querystring parameter passing under CRM 4. some related...

crosspost from http://blogs.msdn.com/rextang In the main page of Dynamics CRM, there is Application Menu Toolbar for users to do most of actions, also allowed for customizations. sometimes you may got customization requirements (like me) not to customize this, but to completely remove it so that user would only be allowed to use Application navigation pane and the Wunderbar in the left side (maybe for the single path page transition for making SOP for users). so I spent some time to find a way to...

crosspost from http://blogs.msdn.com/rextang started playing around CRM 4.0 customization. need to view the page html source often and need a good xml / html tag editor! I choosed Notepad++ for my tag editor, found it pretty useful. and now got the question about using it by default when I view the page source in IE.
