Generation Documentation for CRM 4.0

Dynamics CRM 4.0 is the first version of the product which has seen significant takeup in the market and passed the 1 million user mark in July 2009. These days CRM 4.0 is not very popular, but some organisation use it and you can find many supported tools for CRM 4.0 e.g. Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 Documentation Generator.

It is an add-in for Microsoft Office Excel 2007/2010 to automatically generate documentation for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0. You can download it from codeplex using following url: https://crm4documentation.codeplex.com/
I have worked on some CRM 4.0 legacy projects and I have to say that it is a great tool for documenting customizations. You can list all Forms, Picklist values and Scripts for entities. It generates an Excel file with all details about your CRM 4.0 organization which is very useful.  When you dowload that tool you can download sample documentation of Forms, Pickiists, Scripts.
