Hi.

I am trying to assign to a link type field the value of another field of the same type programmatically.

With fields of type string, integer or decimal I have no problem:

string name = "Name";

decimal number = 1;

entity.Attributes["dv_name"] = name;
entity.Attributes["dv_quantity"] = number;

service.Update(entity);

But when I use I try to assign a link type field, it gives me an error. Lo he intentado de varias formas:

entity.Attributes["dv_uom"] = entity["uomid"];

EntityReference ref = (EntityReference)entity.Attributes["uomid"];
entity.Attributes["dv_uom"] = ref.Name;

I know I have to be doing it wrong, but I can't find how I should do it.

Greetings and thanks.

Sorry. This topic should have been in the Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM for Sales forum. How can I move it?
