Creating a custom SharePoint webpart for CRM
Continuing the back to basics series, I thought I'd write a simple SharePoint webpart that pulls data from the CRM 4.0 VPC. If you've watched the Dynamics Duo talk on SharePoint, this should help you get to the next step and dig into some code.
After a little bit of challenge, I was able to get the sample code published in Code Gallery for download.
I also captured the process of creating a CRM-SharePoint custom webpart as a screencast and you can view it below.

The example shows how you can build it from the group up. You can obviously use SharePoint project template and deployment packages to automate some of the steps.

Hi Girishr, Have you done any work on getting a custom dynamics web part to connect with the dynamics list web part for sharepoint? I'm having loads of trouble getting it to work and I think I've missed something at a low level. Do you have any sample code that you'd be willing to share?? TIA BenAnonymous

Hello Ben, I personally haven't tried connecting it to the Dynamics List Webpart. Maybe some in the Development Forums http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/crmdevelopment/threads might have had some experience with it. Thanks, -Girish Raja.Anonymous

Hi Girish, Can you please let me know how to create a web-part using the vb.net, since I'm not well versed with C# thanks Leroy
