Yes, that’s a good point. We’ll still need this technique, however. Even people who usually use the Outlook client will still sometimes get email with other clients — e.g., OWA. They will still need the record link.

This article’s due an update for CRM 2011, btw, so stay tuned. Thanks for reading!

I have a hard time keeping up with the accelerators, and I definitely missed that one! Thanks for pointing it out. It’s not quite perfect, though, since like all the Accelerators it only works with the on-premise deployment option, and my organization like many others runs Dynamics CRM Online.

Thanks for reading!

Perfect solution!

The version I posted was incomplete in that it didn’t work right the very first time a record is saved. Check out the code Erszin posted in his comment (above). My guess is that that might fix it, although I haven’t tested it. Anyway, if you have time to give it a shot, let me know; if I get to it I’ll post up on my results.

Thanks for all the work you put in to the trick bag, I’ve grabbed some really good stuff here.
I’d love to use this record link idea but adding it to my Contact form’s OnSave kills the many events I have (otherwise working well) in OnLoad. Any thoughts on why that would happen?

Could similar code be added to OnLoad?
Troubleshooting Jscript in CRM makes me want to poke my own eyes out.
