- Visual Studio 2005 and CRM 3.0
- Posted by astuartmills on April 3rd, 2006
If you create a report using Visual Studio 2005 (installed with SQL 2005),
can the report be used in CRM 3.0?

Yes, I believed you can use VS2005 to create reports. Can't use VS2005
to do development work with SDK.

But will it work in (can it be launched from) MS CRM 3.0?

If CRM is using SQL 2005, then you shouldn't have any problems. I have
created SQL reports in VS 2005 for a CRM 3.0 system on SQL 2000. I had to
manually edit the RDL file to get it to load in CRM since there are some
features of SQL RS 2005 that don't work in SQL 2000 environments. What I did
was load the report via the report server (not the CRM interface) and then
used the error messages to tell me what was not compatible. Took some
tweaking but it worked.

Actually you can use VS2005 to work with the SDK just fine. It takes a
little work in IIS to get .NET 1.x and 2.0 to play nice but it can be
done.

Hi Matt,
I created my own SQL View using the CRM tables - this allows much more
flexibility and increases the speed of the processing - Do we have to use CRM
"filtered views"?

You don't have to use the Filtered Views in CRM reports, but this is the only
way to maintain the security roles that users have.

I appreciate everyone's help. I was able to deploy and launch a Custom
report in MS CRM 3.0.
