// strServer should be set with the name of the platform Web server
string strServer = "myservername";

// virtualDirectory should be set with the name of the Microsoft CRM
// virtual directory on the platform Web server
string virtualDirectory = "mscrmservices";
string strDir = "https://" + strServer + "/" + virtualDirectory + "/";

// BizUser proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser bizUser = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser ();
bizUser.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
bizUser.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";

// CRMSalesLiterature proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMSalesLiterature salesliterature = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMSalesLiterature();
salesliterature.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
salesliterature.Url = strDir + "CRMSalesLiterature.srf";

string strErrorMsg;

try

   Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CObjectName objName = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CObjectName();
   objName.Id = strProductId;
   objName.Type = Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.ObjectType.otProduct;

   // Set an association with the product
   salesliterature.SetAssociation(userAuth, strSalesLiteratureId, objName);
