• Milo123 Eventing in CSF

  Hello, I would like to get more details about how to use eventing when writing a WES for CSF. First of all I would like whether there is any difference between the Provisioning Events, Health Events and Usage Events The provided samples with the WES toolkit don't implement any of them (except usage) so I would like to know if they are all implemented in the same way. To the more importaint question: how do I configure the sample from the WES toolkit for Usage eventing to work What is the role of Usage Event Poller included with the WES toolkit Generally what I would like to know is how to send events Is there any more documentation written on this matter And one more dummy question.

• Jaime Oro Login/Logout of Sharepoint Portal 2007

  I am new to Sharepoint 2007. I noticed when testing with different userids that if I login with userid 'A' then switch to userid 'B', close the browser, open a new browser session, the userid 'B' is still logged in. Is there anyway that a user can be logged out of sharepoint when they close their browser Ultimately If I opened a browser from my machine (userid 'A') I would want it to log me into Moss but not if I login from another machine. Thanks What type of Auth are you using (my guess is NTLM). If so, IE has a setting to automatically provide auth based on the current user. Check this setting. I can say that the log on/off process IS a bit flaky. ...Show All

• Jeff Williams Developing ASP.net applications (within sharepoint)

  Hi, I would like to develop a (custom) ASP.net application and host it within Sharepoint, of course with the masterpage provided by sharepoint. Now it's quite easy to create a ASPX page within sharepoint (via sharepoint designer). It's also easy to just copy and paste ASP code in that file. Works fine. Serge van Oever has a nice blog posting ( http://weblogs.asp.net/soever/archive/2006/11/09/SharePoint-2007-_2D00_-_2F005F00_layouts-and-how-to-create-pages-that-run-in-site-context.aspx ) about ASPX and code behind files within the sharepoint content. This works, but of course you don't get the great masterpage system provided by Sharepoint and SharePoint designer. VSeWSS CTP is out, tried that, works but only once (still ctp, so... ...Show All

• Iram Deleting and Recreating a custom Outlook View or "Attempted to read or write protected memory" error

  I'm getting the error message "Failed to create [NAME] View in the Contacts folder:  Attempted to read or write protected memory.  This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt." I'm obviously writing an Outlook Add-In.   I've attached the relevant code below.   To summarize, the problem occurs when I attempt to Delete a view and then recreate a view with the same name.  This error does not occur if I delete another View with a different name. Notes on the code below;   If I remove all the Reinstalled checks and fluff and just leave fldContacts.Views[...].Delete I get the same error.  I left the surrounding code so you can see what I'm trying to do overall.  Error o ...Show All

• Michael Morris Where are the SDKs?

  Does anybody know when the downloadable SDK and workflow templates/starter kit for WSS will be available It's pretty difficult to get started on workflow development without them. Mike Fitzmaurice said they'd be released in November '06 and Eilene Hao said we could expect them by early December. Since then Microsoft seems to have completely forgotten about them. Any news Thanks very much, Lawrence. The RTM versions of the WSS 3.0 and MOSS 2007 SDKs are in the process of getting posted to MS Downloads. The should be available within the next week or so. Look for an official announcement on the SharePoint Team Blog as soon as the files are online. The RTM version of the ...Show All

• Praveen Dayanithi Localication - Numbers/dates - Responsibility of UI Tier or Business Tier?

  Hi forum I'm developing a business tier/layer for a web based UI. I would like the UI to be able to run in any culture but I'm guessing that I need to store dates and numbers one way. My business tier can be located on another server. (via remoting). I understand that it is the CurrentCulture on the thread that affects for formatting of dates and numbers. I would like to make it possible for both dates and numbers to be formatted when displayed in the browser - based on the browser language setting. How do I store these numbers and dates Should the UI do some handling before sending the dates or numbers to the business tier or is it the responsability of the business tier Should I just make sure that the thread on the b ...Show All

• srinivas_kv80 How can you model this without a circular reference?

  This might be in the wrong forum; sorry. I have a really tough data modeling problem, and I'm dumbfounded. I hope there's somebody with an idea. The problem really deals with aquatic habitat and vegetation, but I'll frame it in a more familiar context. It's a very common scenario. An employee works for a company. The employee is assigned to a project. --------- --------- -------- Company --> Project --> Client --------- --------- -------- | | | | ---------- ------------ Employee --> Consultant ---------- ------------ If you add this "consultant" relation between employee and project, isn't that a circular reference Doesn't that violate like 4th normal form or something Is ther ...Show All

  Hi, i have the following problem using the CQWP When using the Content Query web part i can't seem to filter content on text from a lookup field with multiple value select enabled.

  Is there anyway that I can stop some people from creating MySites and let the rest the ability to create it Thanks In Shared Service Provider that is serving the site, go to "Personalization services permissions" ,remove "Personal Site Permission" from All Authenticated Users group.
