    In CRM 2013, I am trying to create a Plugin for Account Create for Pre-Operation(20) stage.

    I guess in this scenario, preimage-postimage doesn't exist and also since the record is not created yet, i can not retrive record directly using service.retrive method.

    So, can any one please assist, how can i get all attribute values that being created for account record??

    Try to first check if it is available or not

    if(e.Contains("accountnumber"))

    {

    String number =e["accountnmber"]; //not need for casting because it is already a text field

    }

    I mean, the plugin runs fine and behind the scene those values are correct when i execute. but while debugging, i can not see those values??

    Any idea??

    Also if i use trace service, where do i see the trace log?? is that the same tracing location "Drive:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics CRM\Trace"          ??? i don't see that is happening.        

    ITracingService trace = localContext.TracingService;

    trace.Trace("account: " +  Number  );
