Reading Values from my new form in Company on CRM 4.0 - dynamics-crm-4

I created a new form in company and my new form has 4 textboxes.How can i access and read my textboxes' values using web services ?

I would suggest using the Advanced Developer Extensions or XRM... here is a link to the page on MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff681559.aspx
Using Xrm you will get a usability similar to EF and the same coding strategy can be used when you upgrade to CRM 2011.

Possible ways to deploy an application to Windows Phone Store using automated tool/process

Is it possible to submit a new app or update an existing app to Windows Phone store with any automate process instead of uploading it manually?
Please suggest the solutions for the same.
I found few automated tools for ios application submission like fastlane
Not possible at the moment and no indication about such feature coming.
There may be such functionality soon.
From https://blogs.windows.com/buildingapps/2016/03/31/announcing-new-dev-center-capabilities-to-increase-app-revenue-and-streamline-management/:
The new Windows Store submission API will be made available in
preview, beginning today and rolling out in waves. This new API offers
a subset of functionality provided by Dev Center as a REST API and
supports these actions for published apps: submitting updates,
modifying metadata, and adding/removing in-app products. You can
request access to the preview through the “Feedback” tab in Dev Center
by selecting “Submission API” in the “Suggestions” tab. Access will be
granted in waves, beginning with a small group of developers. Build

How to web resource to all forms?

I know how to add Web Resource (html/js/image) to particular entity or form like Contacs, Account, even custom entity, or dash board. But problem is we want to show Web Resource on each and every form/entity of dynamics CRM.
We are not allowed to use popup.
Please consider we are using Online Dynamics CRM (and not on premise).
Regards
You need to add manually the web resource to each form of each entity.
There isn't an option or a tool to perform this task.

.net 4.5.1 Identity 2.0 share authentication between applications

I'm in the process of adding Identity 2.0 to our site redesign. It's running fine as an application under the site root. But the root can't see the authtication, re: HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated
I've tried quite a few options (matching machinekeys, etc) with no luck.
I am of view that for single sign on there is a bug in asp.net mvc5.1 templates available. I got the following workaround , For single sign on to work using machine key, One need to add two MVC project with web APi option checked . Then hosted the projects on iis and try single sign on by using the authorize attribute on WEBAPi functions. It is working with me . But i am not able to attain the same behavior with only WEB API based project selection. I am of view that there are bugs in the project selection and they should be address .
If you have other alternate solution using the OWIN based implementation do share .

SQL Server 2008 Report Builder Forms Authentication

Has anyone ever successfully gotten forms authentication to work with report builder? I have a client who wants to use report builder outside my company's domain. Would forms authentication work for this?
We have report builder working with the membership provider. It is possible. I used this for the http://blogs.msdn.com/bimusings/archive/2005/12/05/500195.aspx and it works great. Even got single sign on.
I can't get the prompt from showing, but entering forms credentials can work.. It depends on the authentication source; if using membership provider, you can use forms auth as long as the site can connect to the API/database.
You have to get the SSRS 2005 SDK and there is a forms authentication sample, which you can modify to use membership provider (if you are using it), and use that as the code-base.
HTH.
No, not for building reports as part of reporting services. Forms authentication is not an option here as you can't change how reportbuilder authenticates.
Both reportbuilder 1.0 and 2.0 need to talk to the website that has all of web services machinary. www.site.com/reportserver the user interface is www.site.com/report
Even if you open up your web site to not need authentication the report builder application won't work.
A user can build reports with report builder 2.0 independent of the site but they won't be able to publish from report builder. The could publish thru the website itself.

How can I embed Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Report Builder into my forms?

I don't want to open Report Builder from Report Manager. I want to embed Report Builder into my forms. Is there any way?
This is a very old topic, but I want to post a correct answer since it's one of the first results when searching for "Report Builder".
Simply add a WebBrowser control to your form and on Form_Load, navigate to the URL of the Reporting Services server. You'll have a no-frills "browser" - no back button, no stop, no refresh, but right-clicking on the page will do it.
I do not believe report builder uses anything other than the SSRS API to do its work. You will need to create your own report builder. One way to do this is to play with the microsoft one and monitor the traffic between your browser and the server with HTTPAnalyser or Fiddler. Then you can recreate the same web service calls fom your own app.
Have you had a look at the Report Builder standalone installer? v2.0 was just released in April, so it's possible that you haven't seen it. You can find it here.
I don't think it is possible to do this, given that the Report Builder 2.0 is a standalone application
What you could do however is create a shared data source on the server, and avail the link to the setup file for the installer in your application. Users can then connect to the data source and depending on their skill, create their own reports.
You may be able to subscribe to the appropriate service and build out a front end to talk to the service.
SQL Reporting Services is more of a server based reporting solution. If my embedding into your forms you mean that you want the end user to build reports from inside your application I suggest you look at a third-party tool to do this. I use Developer Express controls and they have a strong and reasonably priced solution for this. The product page is here.
I think it is easy.
You can drag Microsoft.ReportViewer control from toolbox to your webform in studio 2008.
Then you can open report builder to initialize your report.
At the end, that report can be viewed and exported when you run your report.
You should be able to create a hyperlink in your app to startup the click once Report Builder app. But it won't run within your form.
