My Dynamic World

[Microsoft.Crm.Workflow: Microsoft.Crm.Workflow.Activities.EvaluateExpression] [EvaluateExpression] Workflow Error: Unhandled Exception: Microsoft.Crm.CrmException: Cannot create the given type without the required parameters Found a workaround for an annoying issue i ran across today when overhauling a slew of old email notifications. https://rule30.wordpress.com/2014/04/10/fix-microsoft-crm-crmexception-cannot-create-the-given-type-without-the-required-parameters/ In short, dynamic email addresses can get funky.  Remove the To, CC, and BCC values, save.  Then recreate the dynamic connections.

Use this at your own risk. Ever want to change the loading icon from the green circle... to something more interesting? Well I found a great loading icon for CRM over at Ascentium, http://consulting.ascentium.com/blog/crm/Post189.aspx . Goto your CRM webserver, and open \CRMWeb\_imgs\AdvFind in Windows Explorer. Make a copy, or rename progress.gif. Save the graphic above as progress.gif to that directory. Clear your IE cache and the new icon will appear when you perform search or loading functions.
