change default crm script text editor?

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello - Is there a way to change the Text Editor associated with js files in CRM?  For example, when I open a script web resource, the Content section says Type is "Script (JScript)" and there's a "Text Editor" button to the right.

When I click on the "Text Editor" button the script opens up in a new window that says "Edit Content." This is a very limited native CRM view for making script updates, it doesn't even seem to support Find (ctl-f) functionality.

So I was wondering, is there a way to configure CRM to open up the script resource in Visual Studio 2010 instead of the bare bones default editor window?  That would really simplify things for me....

    Thanks Guido, good to know.  I can just follow the download > edit > upload route.  I was just curious if there was an easier, more efficient way that I wasn't aware of....
