I use the Excel Connector on a daily basis and was wondering if anyone had any tips or experiences building their own advanced functions

https://code.google.com/p/excel-connector/wiki/Advanced

 

Specifically I would like to include a resetpassword function so I could easily add users through the connector without having to go back into the interface and create a view to send them a password validation email.

 

Looking at the reset password function here

http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/officetoolkit/Content/sforce_api_calls_resetpassword.htm

 

You would think you could incorporate this into the excel connector.

 

To build your own it references knowing the sflookup_w function

 

Build your own

If you want to build more of these yourself, you'll probably want to look at how each of these calls sflookup_w and the values which you can pass to the salesforce.search function.

 

Anyone else have experience doing this?
