    req.send(requestXML);

    //Get the Response from the CRM Execute method

    //var response = req.responseXML.xml;

    req.onerror = function (e) {

        alert(req.statusText);

    };

    if (req.status === 200) {

        alert(req.responseText);

    }

}

function GetClientUrl() {

    if (typeof Xrm.Page.context == “object”) {

        clientUrl = Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl();

    }

    var ServicePath = “/XRMServices/2011/Organization.svc/web”;

    return clientUrl + ServicePath;

}
