I am working on project that uses JScript to communicate with Web Services. To try and make my life a little easier I wanted to figure out how to write a JScript library that would generate my soap requests and help me with the responses. I found the following posts to be very helpful with that..

Classes in Jscript - Part I

Classes in JScript – Part II: Instance Properties / Methods & Class Properties / Methods

Classes in JScript – Part III: Class Hierarchy and Data Encapsulation

Objects as associative arrays

How to create objects in object-oriented javascript

How to inherit classes in javascript

I was looking around the trying to figure out how to get the id of the current user when working with the CRM WebServices through JScript or Javascript and I came across this article. It didnt really give me the solution I was hoping for but it did show me how to hide a field which I didn't know how to do. And he even had a whole little post on that as well here.

What I think is a better solution for getting the userid using javascript can be found here. It's still a lot of overhead but it doesn't making an unsupported customization to CRM.

I was working on the same thing today and found that there is even a better solution then the one above in the CRM 4.0 SDK. There is a message called WhoAmI that Responds with the calling user's BusinessUnitId, OrganizationId, and UserId. The XML for the request is... <Request xsi:type="WhoAmIRequest" /> Helpful details can be found in the SDK.

For a project I am working on I had to hide the "Print Quote for Customer" button located at the top of the Quote form. I found this great script here for taking care of that.

So every since I have had a laptop I have always had an issue with it waking up randomly from standby. I would put it to sleep, place it in my bag and go somewhere with it, and when I pulled it out it was hot because it had been running for some reason. I ended up just shutting it down most of the time because I knew that it wouldn't stay in standby mode. Just recently, I decided to finally find a fix for the problem. After doing a little searching on the web I found this site which resembled my problem. I followed the link to the patch on Microsoft's site, installed it, and now I can put my computer to sleep without worrying about it turning itself on!
