How to deploy existing report in MS CRM 4.0 - report

I am new with MS CRM (Well.. spot the obvious.. but..)
How can I deploy existing report in MS CRM 4.0?
I don't want to edit or create a new one. I have a .rdl file and I just want to deploy it and publish it for a custom entity.. How do I do that? There is a report wizard in which I thought I could just select my report, but I don't see it in the list there. Maybe I need to copy it to specific location or something, but I don't know where?
Thanks!

In the Reports list (My Work->Reports in Workplace, I think you already found that), click "New", and then under "Report Type" choose "Existing File" which will replace the "Report Wizard" button with a file browser control to let you upload your .rdl file.

Search inside sharepoint designer

I'm using SharePoint designer and trying to find the "search in files option" throw all SharePoint project, something like in visual studio "search and replace".
Is such simple option available in visual designer 2010?
That option is not available in Sharepoint Designer.
Search in files option searches on files in your file system.
Sharepoint designer runs on your computer but it extracts data from the server using web services no files are actually on your computer so that feature is obviously not implemented.
It could be implemented on the server side and provided as a service. But bear in mind that data is also not stored on the file system in sharepoint but in the database.
Luis answer is not correct, at least not for Sharepoint Designer 2013. Click on "Site Pages", choose any page, press control + f to bring up find. Sharepoint Designer 2013 will pull down all the files associated with your site and begin searching them. You will need appropriate permissions.
The "All Pages" option will search your entire SharePoint site. I don't recommend it, it can be quite time-consuming and give you a lot of false positives.
Unfortunately, the only way to search multiple files is brute force:
Close all open tabs.
In the Navigation Pane, open the folder you want to search (such as "Site Assets").
Right-click each file you want to search, and click "Edit in Advanced Mode".
Repeat for each folder.
Open the Find dialog.
Click "Open page(s)" under "Find where:"
Your search will include all open tabs.

Publish only edited page in asp.net

Whenever I update a small part of my website I have to upload whole website again.
If i upload only edited part it throw me exception.
The way I upload my website:
For example if I have 4 pages (home, register, about me, contact me) and if I update home.aspx, I publish whole website in a local address, and then I compress it with zip format and upload it manually.
Is it possible to publish only updated part?
It is not possible to publish only a part of website, but what you can do is to choose Single-File Assembly build option ,by this you can get single assembly for your page.so intead of updating whole application you can update only the pages you change

What I always do when publish ASP.Net Webform project, I complate it with two steps. Maybe this way suitable for you.
When you use publishing tool on visual studio by selecting Build menu -> Publish, you can choose "File System" as "Publish Method", type your "Target Location", and select "Replace matching files with local copies". It mean the project will publish modified files only.
After publishing have done, Open defined "Target Location" using windows explore and sort by "Modified Date" and just copy newer modified files for each directory recursively to your server.
If you build the website pages into dll. You can not published only the aspx. there are many other dll and compiled files in bin folder, we don't know which matches which aspx.
If you only edited the "view", i mean, the html and markup part of <%%> code, and no code behind (.aspx.cs) change, you can published only this aspx. But remember to set website as updatable in the publish dialog.
I suggest you to compile the aspx into one dll. according to #Buzz 's answer. Then, your aspx files would be only an empty file. All you need to do is upload only one dll to the bin folder.

toolbar button to upload to Netsuite? (in Aptana Studio 3)

I have Aptana Studio 3, build: 3.0.9.201202141038
I'm using it to edit some Netsuite client scripts (javascript). The netsuite plugin lets me upload scripts to netsuite, which is great, but I have to right click on the filename in the project explorer, pick "Netsuite" and then "Upload"... too many clicks.
What I want is one button to stick on the toolbar that will do the upload. Is this customization possible? Not that I'm lazy but when debugging it becomes a pain to do so much right-clicking.
In Eclipse/Aptana, the "Project Explorer" can do this. If you select a project and/or file within that project, the "Upload" buttons are made available IF you have set up a remote connection to that project.
I am not certain if your uploads/pushes to Netsuite are via FTP but, if they are, just add your remote connection to the project. To do this, expand your project folder the project in the Project Explorer view and then right-click on the Connections icon to add a new (FTP) connection.Once this is setup, any file selected in the Project Explorer can be uploaded with a simply button click from this view.
Not sure if that is exactly what you want but, in the meantime, might get you closer to it!
Hit ctrl+shift+; and the file will save and upload.

Open File Dialog Asp.Net

I am creating an excel report in vb.net using the office interop. When the report is completed I am saving the excel file on the C drive. The users have asked to save file anywhere they want not just the c drive. Can someone give me some code to popup an opend file dialog in asp.net?
I want the dialog to popup in a saveAs in ASP.NET. I know how to do it in win forms, but I am creating an excel report in asp.net and calling the worksheet objects SaveAs property that excepts a fileName. So right now I just hardcode a file name in there. The users want to choose a file location
I think what you want is actually rather simple.
You can't save a file to the user's computer due to security restrictions (would you want a website saving a file to your computer?)
What you need to do is:
Complete report
Save report file to location on server, IE (.../myWebsite/files/GUID/myReport.rpt)
Display link on next screen pointing to the report file
Doing this the user can right-click and save the file to wherever they want on their computer.
You can clean up these files on whatever schedule you would like.
Assuming you are actually talking about a desktop, winforms app then you can use the built in FileSaveDialog.
Official documentation is here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.savefiledialog.aspx
but there are tons of tutorials explaining it out there:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=vb.net+savefiledialog
You can server files with the Open / Save dialog by using Response.TransmitFile().
The user is then presented with a save as dialog where they can choose the filename and the location on their computer.
You normally do this inside a HttpHandler. A simple one is described here:

"Place code in separate file" in Visual Studio 2008 with ASP.NET

I'm reading a book that recommends clicking a check box that says "Place code in separate file" when adding a new Web Form to an existing ASP.NET project. The book is using Visual Studio 2005 and there is a check box for "Place code in separate file" when you open the "Add New Item" dialog.
I am using Visual Studio 2008 and I do not see the "Place code in separate file" checkbox when I try to add a new item. Is there something I need to do to enable this? Was this functionality no longer possible/important in VS 2008?
I believe in 2008 it is the default behaviour.
If you add an apsx file it will add the aspx.cs without any interaction from yourself.
This option depends on the type of project you are building:
If you are building a Web Site (File | New > Web Site, contains an /App_Code folder, the code is not compiled into a .dll in the /bin folder) then you will have the option (ticked by default in VS2008/2010) to "Place code in separate file", and also "Select master page".
If you are building a Web Application (File | New > Project, doesn't have an /App_Code folder, compiles all .cs/.vb files into one .dll in the /bin folder) then you don't have the option to not create a separate code file, and when you add a new item it's either a "Web Form" or a "Web Form using Master Page".
VS 2008 adds a code behind file by default.
