Great article on CRM UI customization

I recently found a new great blog about Microsoft CRM by Joris Kalz. Joris works for Microsoft in Germany as Product Solution Marketing Manager. Joris doesn't post too often (only 9 posts since October!), but when he does post the content is great.

A recent post showed how to perform Advanced UI customizations without breaking the SDK (so you don't void your support agreement with Microsoft). In this example, he shows how to hide an Account tab based on the pick-list value of the Relationship type. So if the Account is a "Reseller" then show the "Details" tab, but if the Account is a "Supplier" then hide the tab. Obviously, you can easily imagine how beneficial this type of customization would be.

Please download the sample code and check it out. Then email Joris and ask him to post more frequently because we love his posts!
