• Fiddel Design Question about an "actor" in a use case

  Hi there, 1/do Actors in use case refer only to humans or can they also refer to objects like Account, Phone, Invoice.... Or is an actor strictly a human who performs action in the system 2/ is here the right place to ask questions about design, uml..etc or is there another place in this forum Thank you Hi, 1. An actor is either a person or something that interacts with the system (for example - an external system that sends requests). An Account is more of a business entity than an actor. 2. I guess it's a good place as any. Also you might want to try the modeling forum (id 229). Best of luck, Ido.

• boston123 DataAccess Design Pattern

  Hello, One of my application requirements is that when the user logs in, if they are not conected through the VPN, I need to perform all data access through webservices and if they are logged in, use my business components directly. Does anyone have any good ideas for this or point me in the direction of any existing patterns Thanks! using SOA in your scenario is best and loosely coupled way. Hi Diesel, If the business operations are similar in Webservice as well as the Business components. All that you have to do is have a common interface implemented by both of them.

• Tomay Connecting MOSS2007 to Office 2007

  When I tested the Pre-release version of MOSS2007 the site seemed to connect it self to Office and my windows network. It showed up in "My Network places" etc, automatically. I started over when the RC came out but the installation did not have the same effects. I cannot save a document from Word2007 to the sharepoint site, and I cannot sync my tasks or calendar. When I try it just tells me to "Contact my network admin"...I am the network admin and I don't know what's wrong. Any suggestions on even a place to start In your Shared Services Provider Administration, you can find a page that let's you manually add links to your Office apps.

• spshah Adding "Person Column" to a list

  I may be barking up the wrong tree but thought I would throw it out there. Using MOSS and the BDC, we have the capability to add Business Data as columns in a list. How would I go about creating a "People" type in my BDC that pulls the data from the user profiles in MOSS What I would like to do is have a drop down or search screen for selecting a person from the profile store instead of keying the information into a contact list and then having the information be out of date , etc... It would be much easier to just allow them to select a person and pull the data from there. They would also get the "Presense" pawn next the persons name etc.. which would be very useful. Does this sound possible Has anyone done th ...Show All
