SharePoint Products and Technologies 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 content ...Show All

Visual Studio Ignoring build errors while working on other pages
Suppose I have a few errors on one page that I am not interested in at the moment due to working on other pages. If I perform a build and ignore those errors at the moment, will those errors cause conflicts in the operations of other pages and code Personally, I have not had any problems when modifying or creating new pages and ignoring errors on others, I just need some professional validation on the matter. Thanks Mark, Since you're talking about pages I assume you're building an ASP.NET application. In general, you should be fine. Unless the errors are in a component that's shared across multiple pages, the errors on one page won't impact the others. In the future, questions regarding web develop ...Show All
