Hello, I'm still learning Sharepoint and all of its various concepts, so apologies in advance for my ignorance. Here's what's going on - my company is moving a whole bunch of forms from another application into Sharepoint as InfoPath forms. Each InfoPath form is a Sharepoint list. So, we've got something like 300 different lists re...

I have a solution that copies all the content of SharePoint lists to a file, and then copies the content of the file back onto SharePoint (used for backups and stage / live environment switches). Now I can copy all the fields I need except for one : ID I understand that it is a read only field, but some other read only fields can be up...

I am using Content Editor webparts (ootb) on a MOSS page. When the author's need to change content, they check out the page to get access to the web part editing menus, and then open the ootb rich text editor. However once they make their changes and click ok, the page tries to refresh. At which point SharePoint steps in and warns the us...
I want to make a drop down control, an HTML select/dropdown box with two specific values. I want to package it so that I can deploy it to any SharePoint 2010 server I want, for its generic. At this point, I am confused if this should be a Visual WebPart, or a Web Control (does this exist in SharePoint 2010, Web Controls?). I would like t...

I'm writing a C# app that retrieves data from a SharePoint list via a web service proxy object (created with wsdl.exe). Several of the fields within the lists are multilined plain text. When these fields are displayed using the standard SharePoint web portal the text is formatted correctly (has newlines) but when I get this data using th...
hi there o/ I took the generated newform.aspx file that has a select-field with 3 options. I now added some js/jquery code to display different fields for options 1/2/3 by taking the internal field name of the select-field and looking up what option is selected and change the displayed fields. That worked perfect for a while for intra...

Before you say this topic belongs to careeroverflow.com, I've tried searching keyword: sharepoint there and only 2 results came up with that tag! So I've decided to go ahead and ask the question here. I've been going through monster.com for sharepoint developer jobs. Salary seems to be high. I guess that's good. But have you seen the ex...
I have some data that's currently stored in an Excel workbook. It makes sense for the data to be in Excel (in that it's easy to manage, easy to extend, do calcs, etc.) but some of the data there is required by an automated process, so from that point of view it would be more convenient if it were in a database. To give the information m...
I've created a custom Sharepoint 2007 web part with WSS 2.0 (using the Microsoft.Sharepoint WebPart class and a DWP file). I deploy it using a CAB file and the stsadm 'addwppack' command, and it gets added to the server gallery under the "miscellaneous" group. How can I make the web part install to a custom group, such as "Company Web P...
I am not a Sharepoint programmer, I'll admit up front. But I'm a user, and I know if I find a solution online it'll be a lot faster than waiting for my I/S team to find it.... I am building a wiki with a main page and one level deep of subsidiary pages. (I don't want to debate if it should be a wiki or not... I'm looking for shared acce...

PDFs and image types, etc. open in the browser, while some activate the open/save dialog. I believe it's all just on the client for the def...
We are using the “CAS” Single Sign-On system that was developed by Jasig. And trying to authenticate users against it for a SharePoint 2010 site. The main issue is that we are validating the user’s username and password on an external site that sends a “ticket” back to our SP2010 site via query string. Our app then revalidates this ti...
Possible or not? I know Sharepoint 2010 Server won't even run on a client side of Vista/Windows 7 64-bit, forget about Windows XP 32-bit. But if I can install and use Visual Studio 2010 on Windows XP just fine, shouldn't Sharepoint development tools also work on Windows XP 32-bit? The thing is I have a very old laptop (from 2005) that...
