There’s a new property called “NoLock” added to the QueryExpression class for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011. I found this researching a locking issue on the database we were having for a client. According to the Microsoft CRM 2011 SDK:

“The benefit of setting NoLock to true is that it allows you to keep the system from issuing locks against the entities in your queries; this increases concurrency and performance because the database engine does not have to maintain the shared locks involved. The downside is that, because no locks are issued against the records being read, some “dirty” or uncommitted data could potentially be read.

How to – Pass parameters to JavaScript Web Resource function in CRM 2011.

Hi,

Suppose we want to pass few values as parameter to our JavaScript function.

“Object doesn’t support property or method ‘setFormMode’” error while closing the record’s form in CRM 2011.

Hi,

We had recently written a plugin for sending email. In the description of the email we were inserting the URL of the record

string recordUrl = string.Format(“<a href=’{0}/userdefined/edit.aspx?etc=4300&id={1}‘>Click here to open the record</a>”, this.serverName, marketingListGuid.ToString());

While clicking the link the record opens properly, however when we try closing the form’s window we get the below error

We have UR8 installed in our on premise development environment there we don’t get this error, however we are still getting the above error for our online dev and production environment.
