RIM Tool on NAV 2009

With the release of 5.0 SP1, a new data type conversion routine was introduced with codeunit 5302 - Outlook Synch. Type Conversion. There are several known issues with data migration due to these changes.

The previously published blog for 5.0 SP1 contains a change log of some code suggestions and workarounds for the more common and/or critical issues. 

This blog addresses many of the same issues in NAV 2009. While some corrections were made between the release of 5.0 SP1 and 2009, not all fixes made it into the RTM release of 2009. The following change log can be applied to the 2009 objects.

This change log applies to 2009 RTM application objects ONLY.

Issues addressed by the change log:

1) Overflow on type conversion from Text to Text in Form 8626 when a text field larger than 100 chars is imported.
2) Error on import of fields beginning with a number -1099 Code, etc.- The call to member selectSingleNode failed. msxml6.dll returned the
   following message: Expression must evaluate to a node-set.
3) Imported dates are blank after migration data is applied.
4) Negative decimal values are converted incorrectly, resulting in changed values.
5) Expected token 'EOF' found '$'. Error on fields with $ symbol

Changes are labeled with the associated number above.
