• NinetyNine Differences between WSS and MOSS 2007 ?

  What are the main differences between WSS 3.0 and MOSS 2007 I realise that WSS 3.0 is free but there must be strong reasons why a company would pay for MOSS 2007 over the WSS version Thanks qwertyjjj wrote: It seems like purely from a collaboration viewpoint, the 2 systems are very similar. This is correct what you effectively have is the WSS V3 platform as part of the OS, with the collaboration feature provided for free. I seem to remember that in the early presentations they did show the collaboration as one of the applications that had been developed on the WSS V3 platform and list it at the same level as the other MOSS 2007 applications.

• Milzit Alerts not being sent

  About a month back Sharepoint stopped sending alerts to subscribers. Notification is only sent when a new user is added. No other alerts are working for any of the Sharepoint sites on the server. I've searched pretty extensively for a solution and the closest I have come is: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894632/en-us. But the kb solutions did not correct the problem. The SP installation is running on server 2003 sp1 and the SP version is 2.0 (version no. 11.0.6361.0 (sp1)). At this point I'm baffled but I really need to get this fixed. Any ideas or help is really appreciated. Shane, It's the site alerts that are failing. The only alert/message that SP is currently sending is the email sent to a new use ...Show All

• Leonard Lee To use DevForce O/RM or Datasets?

  Hello, I am wrestling with the decision on how to design a new (Order Entry) application. I am using VB 2005, and it will be a Windows Forms app. I have about an intermediate+ level of expertise. In the past I have used VB DataSets and the whole dataset designer which connects to the database. Since then I have learned about O/R mapping tools and am considering using DevForce from IdeaBlade. It seems to work well, so far connecting to the database and generating the classes that relate to the tables. I like this concept and think it makes sense. This seems like a big change, or is it My question is, is this a good direction to go Everything you read from the VS documentation refers to typed Datasets as well as the examples. Wha ...Show All
