Thought this might be of interest to folks here.

Dynamics CRM 3.0 has a new way to add data from fields in CRM entities using
what are called "slugs". This is a pretty simple way to get data into an
E-mail that is created in response to some event. However, you may have
discovered that there is a very limited subset of the fields available as
slugs. Even some bits of data that were easily accessible in CRM 1.2
Workflow are not available as slugs in 3.0.

This tutorial will show you a quick and easy way to insert a hyperlink to a
CRM record into an E-mail created via workflow.

Sean - Many thanks for your tutorial. I have been trying to accomplish this
using OnChange and OnSave events (to put the GUID into each of the entities
I needed the id) with minimal success. Your solution worked like a charm!

It took me quite a while as this is the first time I've ever attempted
something like this, so here is a suggestion or 2 to make your tutorial even
easier for other newbies:
1) When you say to copy the .dll created in VS to the directory on the CRM
server, might want to give the path to the .dll you are meaning. Perhaps I
did something wrong, but I found ~3 identically named .dll's in the project
I created.
2) Midway through your tutorial you jumped into using the SDK - lost me
totally here :-). Took a while to figure out I could skip that section.
3) Some more pictures would be helpful in the VS section. Had a bit of
difficulty figuring out how to add a class, etc. so i ended up just copying
and pasting your entire code into the work area and crossing my fingers . .
.. worked great however!

All minor suggestions - Thanks again so much for the time you spent on this!
