Just a heads up on something I ran into that was causing me some problems. The format of the way the connection string is stored in the connection.config file of the SalesLogix deployed slxclient website has changed between versions 7.5 and 8.

I recently assisted a number of users that were unable to get Intellisync to configure or sync correctly. Here are some of the issues and fixes we used.
A recent Microsoft automatic update has added new security to IE8 that prevents some users from logging into the SLX Client.
The Sage Desktop Manager application that runs in your taskbar can be restarted from your Start, Programs, Startup, SalesLogix Desktop Manager. This location, while not obvious, does allow those users without the SalesLogix LAN client install to start the app from the Programs.
With the revision of Intellisync in version 7.5 the new requirement is a deployment of the SLXIntellisync portal. What you will need to do is go through all of the same steps you would take to deploy the slxclient. On your web server add the Webdll user to the local administrators group, the IIS_WPG or (IIS_IUSRS in Windows Server 2008
The standard SalesLogix 7.5.x “SLX Web Reporting” site can only be used for one database because it contains a Connect.Config file that points to a single database. You can switch between databases by re-deploying the “SLX Web Reporting” site, but in a development environment it is more convenient to set up multiple reporting sites, one for each database. The below procedure explains how to setup reporting dedicated to one database. (The...
I recently had a client that was using the SalesLogix LAN client and had upgraded from 6.2 to 7.5.2 During the upgrade a problem arose that exhibited itself by crashing the SalesLogix client with no error messages of any kind.

The SalesLogix GridView control does not offer settings fro controlling the width of columns placed within it during design time. Apparently, the though was the control does such a fine job of auto-sizing the grid that exposing those kind of properties was not needed (It is). There is a way of doing this, though it […]
In a recent post I wrote about being careful about what names you give your Entities to prevent them from conflicting with other assemblies or classes that are used by the SalesLogix Web application.
