Hi,
"GenerateEntitySchema" tool generates a MS CRM Entity Schema.
Example "account": it generates the schema for all the attributes including (picklist values).
Have a look at this tool. (See screenshot)
you can download Generate MS CRM Entity Schema from http://www.codeplex.com/GenerateEntitySchema
As I'm working on this tool i'll release the source code soon.
All feedbacks are most welcome. !!!
Happy MS CRM Development.

In MS CRM 4.o, you can use below url to obtain entity schema:

Hi Ranjit,
Thanks 4 your swift response.Appreciate it!
Actually am attempting to get the XSD Schema for individual CRM entities..when i was searching for it i saw an article stating that i could get the XSD schema of individual entities-For Instance if i need to obtain the XSD schema for account entity,i could do it with the url -"http://localhost/sdk/xsd/entity.aspx?entity=account"......but no go as i could not find the Directory ??XSD ..so i was wondering if it is available only in CRM 3.0..Hope this helps

Hi Ranjit,
It takes me to the metadata browser,where the the entity metadata is displayed in an Aspx page but i need the XSD for an entity.
Essentially speaking,
It is available as a huge chunk(i.e for all the entites) in the metadatadata service.wsdl file..but am thinking if there is any way to do retrieve the XSD file for a particular entity.
could you pleasetake a look at this url :"http://customerfx.com/pages/crmdeveloper/2006/02/17/getting-xsd-schema-for-crm-entities.aspx"
and
http://customerfx.com/pages/crmdeveloper/2006/02/15/16480.aspx
The First url describs an aritcle where we can obtain the XSD schema
and the later one represents the metadata Browser through which we can drill down on seperate entities.
My Ambiquity floats around the article that is described in the first URL
Hi Ranjit,
I am using ur Schema generator Tool..what is the significance of method Insert and Update that u've added?
Hi,
The advantage of the tool is that, it genereates the metadata for each and every entity. If you look at the MS CRM EntityMetadata XSD Generator, it won't give you the complex type of data, such as:
Picklist(all Values).
Boolean (True, False Values)
and so on.
And you can easily PARSE this XSD.
Thanks,
Ranjit
Hi Rantjit,
What is the difference between the InsertDynamicSchema.xsd and UpdateDynamicSchema.xsd that the Application is generating?
There are some fields which are applicable for Insert and Update.
There are some fields which comes in picture when updating an enityt record.
Thanks,
Ranjit
