Navision Object Manager - Mod

Navision Object Manager - Mod
I have been working on an object management development tool on and off for about a year. I call it Object manager. I have been using it productively in my work for the last 8 months and have been enhancing it as I go. I would like to offer it to everyone as a group project. Currently the object IDs are in the 87500 range, so only developer licenses could have access. Maybe this can be changed soon with some add-on range objects.
The project touches these major areas so far:
Object History with restoration
Projects with Objects
CodeSafe - an automatic object backup feature
Text Compare - using a modified version of the compare tool
Enhance Object Import/Export using a new file format .vso (very silly object)
Multi user Object Locks
Upgrades
Object Date/Time Compare

It is a very useful tool as it is, but I think if we all used our heads and skills together it could be fanta stic and increase everyone's productivity.
I would be glad to post and/or email the objects to anyone who is interested.

If anyone is interested in working on this project, please email me and we can get this organized and going.

Important:
Needs also following download: Navision Object Manager - Base

This download contains only changed objects and new documentation.
You only need to download the Navision Object Manager - Base once and then all updates will be here in Navision Object Manager - Mod.

This is an update to the objects in the Object Manager as of 5/31/05. They address the following issues:

Break out of History, CodeSafe, Upgrade,Merge Management into there own codeunits (Object Management was getting to big) An upgrade to the system for returning you to the last object you were on when you close object manager. All this code has been moved to the OM main form since it is the only place it is used.

The Run Object Manager Codeunit is now multilanguage enabled using text constants. so you can add your language's keyboard shortcuts and symbols. CSY for Czech has already been added. If we can pass this object around we can add languages in a systematic manner.

More is coming. I look forward to hearing requests and comments on what's working and what is not.

Hello I like this

We have recently looked at Celenia Version Control and this is very similar

Any chance you could tell me how your CSideWindows DLL works? or better yet, get the source code?

Hi, Steve
it would be very nice to have a new Dynamics NAV 4.xx compliant version. The current version can be used on NAV 4, but the Navision Object Manager - Base can't be restored into a version 4 database, to say one, you need to export all the objects from an earlier version and import them all, skipping the conflicting ones; not to mention menusuites which are not supported.

Don't you think the thing would deserve an upgrade?

I'm willing to help, if needed.
