vitich Opening form versions in browser instead of InfoPath
Right now, I have the advanced settings for a forms library to open forms in a Browser window instead of within InfoPath, should the user have InfoPath installed. This forces the Forms Server to display the form within the browser. However, if I choose Version History and select a previous version, then the version shows up within InfoPath. This does not happen on computers where InfoPath is not installed. Is there a setting or customization for enforcing the "Opening Browser-enabled documents" setting on versioned documents as well Addendum: there is information on msdn's site about invoking browser-enabled forms through the use of query parameters. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms772417.asp ...Show All
KevMac Modular application development
Hello... Being relatively new to large scale applicaton development I would like to ask if a) there is a simple way or b) there is a preferred way; to developing a modular application. What I mean by this is that I would like to create an base application which will be along the lines of a point-of-sale app. However, users can opt for (and pay extra for naturally!) additional "modules". For example, a reporting module, a stock control module, a restaurant module etc. Rather than simply creating separate application that interact, I wondered if VS2005 or the VB.NET 2.0 platform in general had a "perfect" solution to this hidden somewhere. Most importantly, the application needs the ability to be able to add a ...Show All
hmayer PassThrough authentication fails: Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE'
I've tried it with every AuthenticationMode! But no one seems to work correctly in my case. I thought that PassThrough should work with a preset User ID and password. This would be enough for the moment, but even this doesn't work!! With WindowsCredentials I get the following error: The Property with name 'SsoApplicationId' is missing on the LobSystemInstance. SsoApplicationId I tried to set this with the SharePoint SSO but I've no such services. How can I set this just for the current WindowsCredentials (of the current Sharepoint user) With RevertToSelf I get the following error: "An error occurred while retrieving data from MyLOBInstance.

Azaz moving documents
Hi All, 1st a great thank you to Lawrence for his competent presentations on the European SharePoint Conference! My question: how to move documents from one (i.e. personal) doc library to an other (i.e. public location). Found only a context menu entry for copy, where I have to know the target URL. Which "standard" user knows the target URL Is there any possibility for browsing Thanks in advance, Jens Are you trying to move docs within the same site collection In that case you can move using the content and structure page (If you have MOSS, you should see a link in settings.aspx). When you choose move in the context menu, you will get a target picker to pick the target doc lib. ...Show All
Michael Schwarz - AjaxPro Sql table design for unknown drilldown depth
I have a basic question about how to design tables where you don't know how many layers deep you need to drill down, or if children records can have 0 or more children. It would look something like this.... 1 1.1 1.2 2 2.1 2.2.1 2.3.1 2.4.1.1 Or if it was a cms for a news site, you could have: News - local - national Classifieds - Cars -- For Sale --- By owner --- By dealer -- For Lease In this news site case it's not as simple as having 2 tables - Category & Subcategory because "News" has 1 layer deep of children, but Classifieds children can have children under that. Anybody have a good tutorial link or explanation Well the simplest solution is something like this... Imagine a family ...Show All

windthorstkings SharePoint Backup fails
Hello all, I am having problems doing a backup of the SharePoint 2007 Server, served by SQL 2005 on a different machine. This worked once a week or so ago, but now I only get a "completed with errors" message.

I am logged in using the setup account, can view the content database in Management Studio, but cannot back up the SharePoint site. Any help would be appreciated.

AlanWKey Initiation Form doesn't appear when usin automatic launch WF
Hello, I've associated a custom WF developed with VS2005 and IP forms to a task list but when I select "Start this workflow when a new item is created" the initiation form is not shown, so I get " null " for Initiation data on workflowproperties in onWorkflowActivated first event. But this doesn't happen when I launch manually the workflow. Then (if manually started) the initation form is shown and everything goes fine. Anyone have any suggestions Hi Eduardo, You can't use an initiation form on an auto-start workflow. If you need to capture custom initiation data on a per item basis I think you'll need to set up some fields on the list or document library and parse the conten ...Show All

nayob How do you prevent users from creating personal sites?
I have created 7 sites, one for each department and I will be setting up permissions for certain staff to manage them. What I would like to prevent is everyone clicking up in the right-hand corner on 'MySite' and creating their own personal site. Is there a way to either keep this from happening or hiding the tabs from view Another way to achieve this is to disable Self-Site Creation on your web application. But this won't hide the link, so I think you should follow Bob's advice to complement this solution. I am unsure where to do this. Do I go to Central Admininstration, Application Management, Applications Security Or, do I set up security from the site collection, site directory I set up an ...Show All
