Update Entity Attribute Descriptions...

[David Nicholls]

I would like an easy way of updating the descriptions of all attributes on entities that currently have no descriptions currently set...

I intended to link the tables into a quick Access database, and build some simple forms to allow an user to trawl through the attributes and set them as necessary, but...

I can't find the table that contains the attribute description - any ideas?

Thanks

Hi David,
There's a MetadataSchema.Attribute table in CRM but I don't think directly
updating it is supported. Actually, I'm 100% sure it's not supported, but
what I'm not sure of is if updating it will work or not. backup your database
before trying this!
