Posted on by Elangamban 445

Hi,

I'm receiving the following error in visual studio community 2013 while working with Dynamics crm online.


The type or name XRM does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft'(are you missing an assembly reference)

    Hi Jason,

    Thanks for the suggestion, I've installed using Nuget Package management tool.

    Worked fine.

    I would actually recommend using the Nuget Package management tool for getting the SDK assemblies. Microsoft releases all of them in nugget packages and this is a better solution for source controlled projects. www.nuget.org/.../Microsoft.CrmSdk.CoreAssemblies

    You need to download the 2016 SDK (www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx) and then make a reference to the relevant DLL in the bin folder.

    That aside, what is it you're trying to do? The SDK also contains some code examples which might help you.

    Hope it helps.

    Hi,

    Have you added a reference to the assemblies you want to use?

    Hi,

         Try this:

               Check your .Net framework is it  .Net Framework 4 Client Profile and if it is then change it to  .NET Framework 4.
