MS CRM - updating solutions

Updating Solutions:

Modifying Components

The follow options are available for modifying Solution Components.

Creating a New Component: You can create a new component in a
Solution from the Components view in the Navigation pane by
clicking New and selecting the type of component from the dropdown
menu. Alternatively, you can navigate to the specific type of
component in the Component list and click New on the ribbon for
that component. Either way, this action will create the component on
the system, and create a reference to it in the Solution.

Adding an Existing Component: If a component already exists on
the system, a reference to it can be added to the Solution. This works
in a similar way to creating a new component. You can either select
the type of component to add from the option in the Components
view, or navigate to the specific component in the Navigation pane
and choose Add Existing from there. Two specific components can
be added here for which there is no New option; Site Map and
Application Ribbon.

Delete: This will remove the component from the system. It also
removes any references to the component in unmanaged Solutions.
You may not be allowed to do this if the component is part of
managed Solutions.

Remove: This option removes the reference to the component from
the Solution.

Publish: Changes to components may need to be published before
they take effect. This does not apply to all changes, but for those that
need Publishing, this button will do it.

Show Dependencies: Components frequently depend on other
components. For example, relationships depend on the entities they
relate to, and charts depend on data from entities, and so on. For
component X, this button will present a dialog box showing the
components that depend on X, and the components upon which X
depends. This is useful for checking before a component is deleted
(you will not be allowed to delete it if other components depend on
it). It also tells you what components must be in your Solution or
guaranteed to present on the target System when the Solution is
imported.

Add Required Components: Because of dependencies between
components, you may need to include other components in your
Solution to make the existing component function. When you add an
existing component, the system will ask you if you want to include
the components it depends on (if any). The Add Required
Component button will check the current component and add to the
Solution any other components it depends on.
