Hello!!!
I was able to create customized form using Visual Studio. Thanks to Mariano.
For my .Net project I am using thirdparty controls like Grid, Textbox etc called devExpress.com, but I am not able to add it in Dynamics GP templates. When I try to add it throw error called- "Athe assembly reference "devExpress.Data.v13.1" could not be added to the project. This Wizard will continue to run but the resulting project may not build properly".
FYI- I am using Visaul Studio 2010 and GP 2010.
How can I used thirdparty controls in my Projects.
Expert any advice?
Thanks

VS Tools for GP Database Trigger to create or re-create same from Dex -Trigger_RegisterByDatabaseName()
How can we do this in VS Tools for GP? I'm upgrading some old Dex code that has this trigger and I want to move all events over to .Net. I tried to expand the ISV code to the table and similarily create a local much like I would for a Form or Window trigger. I don't see how, at this time, that I can create VS Tools triggers on tables in a third party or DynGP dictionary. Thoughts?

Rick,
Unfortuantely that didn't happen for GP 2010/2013. Not sure what will happen for GP14 (next release).
In order to do this, you'd have to add the Continuum db triggers for this piece. Which is a drag.

Hi Shakir
Did you look at the DVD image in the \Tools\SDK\VS Tools folder? This is where VSTools has been located for many versions.
If you are looking for Menu for Visual Studio Tools, that is now the Visual Studio Integration Toolkit (http://WinthropDC.com/VSIT).
