Create User from Contact

here's a simple way to create a drupal user from an civicrm contact. the route i took was to make the link to the contact's user record, that shows up on the contact detail screen, change from "View User Record" to "Create User Record" if there is no user record already created. when you click on this link it brings you to the standard drupal create user screen with the user name and primary email address already filled in. (i wasn't able to figure out how to get the default password set.) This was only tested with CiviCRM 1.5.

this requires change in two files. to create the link from contact detail to add user page:
modules/civicrm/templates/CRM/Contact/Page/View/Basic.tpl

and to get contact data from civicrm into the new user form:
modules/civicrm/drupal/civicrm.module

to create the link from contact detail to add user page, add the else statement below to the if $url in: modules/civicrm/templates/CRM/Contact/Page/View/Basic.tpl

to get contact data from civicrm into the new user form, replace the case 'register' section of the civicrm_user function in: modules/civicrm/drupal/civicrm.module
