    text
    copied!<p>I am trying to write a plugin to create a new contact entity in Microsoft CRM 2011. I'm yet to find any useful information online and I feel like I've been banging my head against a brick wall all day. The code I have posted below is giving me an error saying "The name 'service' does not exist in the current context". Can anyone tell me what's going on, please?</p> <pre class="lang-cs prettyprint-override"><code>// &lt;copyright file="PreValidateContactCreate.cs" company=""&gt; // Copyright (c) 2013 All Rights Reserved // &lt;/copyright&gt; // &lt;author&gt;&lt;/author&gt; // &lt;date&gt;8/6/2013 4:22:10 PM&lt;/date&gt; // &lt;summary&gt;Implements the PreValidateContactCreate Plugin.&lt;/summary&gt; // &lt;auto-generated&gt; // This code was generated by a tool. // Runtime Version:4.0.30319.1 // &lt;/auto-generated&gt; namespace Plugins1 { using System; using System.ServiceModel; using System.Collections.Generic; using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk; using Microsoft.Crm.Sdk.Messages; using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Client; using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Discovery; using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Metadata; using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Query; /// &lt;summary&gt; /// PreValidateContactCreate Plugin. /// &lt;/summary&gt; public class PreValidateContactCreate: Plugin { /// &lt;summary&gt; /// Initializes a new instance of the &lt;see cref="PreValidateContactCreate"/&gt; class. /// &lt;/summary&gt; public PreValidateContactCreate() : base(typeof(PreValidateContactCreate)) { base.RegisteredEvents.Add(new Tuple&lt;int, string, string, Action&lt;LocalPluginContext&gt;&gt;(10, "Create", "contact", new Action&lt;LocalPluginContext&gt;(ExecutePreValidateContactCreate))); // Note : you can register for more events here if this plugin is not specific to an individual entity and message combination. // You may also need to update your RegisterFile.crmregister plug-in registration file to reflect any change. } /// &lt;summary&gt; /// Executes the plug-in. /// &lt;/summary&gt; /// &lt;param name="localContext"&gt;The &lt;see cref="LocalPluginContext"/&gt; which contains the /// &lt;see cref="IPluginExecutionContext"/&gt;, /// &lt;see cref="IOrganizationService"/&gt; /// and &lt;see cref="ITracingService"/&gt; /// &lt;/param&gt; /// &lt;remarks&gt; /// For improved performance, Microsoft Dynamics CRM caches plug-in instances. /// The plug-in's Execute method should be written to be stateless as the constructor /// is not called for every invocation of the plug-in.
