SalesLogix GroupFinder

This utility provides a quick way to view the SQL that makes up the current group in the SalesLogix Sales Client, navigate through the group, and most importantly, export the group to one of several different formats.

This uses the same code as the QuickXporter (see: QuickXporter - Quick Data Export Utility) so the export file formats are the same:

  • Microsoft Excel
  • Microsoft Word
  • HTML
  • Plain Text
  • Rich Text
  • Comma-Delimed Text (CSV)
  • Tab-Delimited Text
  • Data Interchange Format (DIF)
  • SYLK Format
  • Copy to Clipboard

I haven't used this utility for a few years, but I believe it is bug free. It does have an issue with connecting to the group (and exporting) if you are using a DSN instead of a BDE alias in the Sales Client.

Here is a screenshot:

About the Author

  Ryan Farley
(SalesLogix Business Partner)
Customer FX Corporation

I am the creator of slxdeveloper.com. As the developer, architect, chief editor of the slxdeveloper.com site, I attempt to build and support the SalesLogix developer community as much as possible, supporting my fellow business partners and providing a place where companies with SalesLogix can learn more about developing and integrating with SalesLogix.

For my day job, I lead all development efforts for Customer FX Corporation as the Director of Development. I work from my home in Arizona but find myself often in Minnesota. I have worked with SalesLogix since it's version 2.13 release and have architected & developed several large applications & frameworks built on new technologies that make use of SOAP, XML, web & windows services while integrating with SalesLogix. Those who know me understand that I am not someone who enjoys spending time in the Architect. Instead, I try to focus on taking SalesLogix to new levels and keep it up with current industry standards and technological advances.

I have 15+ years of formal programming experience using several languages such as C#, Delphi, Visual Basic, C++, T-SQL, & Java - but C# is my passion. You can read more about my love of programming and non-SalesLogix development articles on my personal weblog on RyanFarley.com, and more SalesLogix related entries on my SalesLogix weblog at CRM Developer.

Check out my new product Outlook2CRM - Easy, customizable, SalesLogix integration for Outlook!

Happy coding.
