//# The following code example shows how to use the Merge message.

// Set up the CRM service.
CrmAuthenticationToken token = new CrmAuthenticationToken();
// You can use enums.cs from the SDK\Helpers folder to get the enumeration for Active Directory authentication.
token.AuthenticationType = 0; 
token.OrganizationName = "AdventureWorksCycle";
 
CrmService service = new CrmService();
service.Url = "http://:/mscrmservices/2007/crmservice.asmx";
service.CrmAuthenticationTokenValue = token;
service.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

// Create the target for the request.
TargetMergeAccount target = new TargetMergeAccount();
// EntityId is the GUID of the account that is being merged into.
target.EntityId = new Guid("2B951FBC-1C56-4430-B23B-20A1349068F3");

// Create the request.
MergeRequest merge = new MergeRequest();
// SubordinateId is the GUID of the account merging.
merge.SubordinateId = new Guid("AD618DB2-F0DB-4A6A-8C4B-2F2213EAA38E");
merge.Target = target;
merge.PerformParentingChecks = false;

account updateContent = new account();
updateContent.address1_line1 = "test";
merge.UpdateContent = updateContent;
      

// Execute the request.
MergeResponse merged = (MergeResponse)service.Execute(merge);
