Regarding button grayed out in CRM for Outlook
Posted by Elena on October 18th, 2006


Hello,

I have the above problem in 2 pcs. First has OS windows XP professional and
Outlook 2003 SP2. Second has OS windows 2000 professional and Outlook 2003
SP2. In both the CRM toolbar appears fine, and, when you click on it the
forms that open have the Regarding buttons grayed out, so we cannot really
use them. No error message, no other problems.

Please advise,

Elena

Could be a security role issue for the users. Does it work if they
access CRM through Explorer rather than Outlook client?
