We had a site collection running more or less ok, on old hardware, and we decided it was time to install service packs for MOSS and WSS so that the site could be migrated to 2010. This is where the problems started, just getting the updates installed took a lot of troubleshooting with service...

Hi everyone, I'm kind of new to more advanced sql than update,select, etc. and I'm trying to select all records from one table, modifying the returned value of a field on some of them based on records from another table. Basically, I have a customers table and an orders one, trying to select all...

Hi, I hope this is the right forum for this question: I'm hoping to create a little program which will run in the background, and its only job is to open a web page when the user prints (to physical printers, not pdf, for example) - and maybe pass a parameter to the page, like how many pages...

thanks guys - I'm looking forward to tinkering with this stuff soon

I've got a spreadsheet with about 1600 hyperlinks, all to pages with information on the corresponding item for each hyperlink. On each of these web pages, there is an address field and a phone number field, address is inside "<div class='address'" tags, and phone # is inside "<td class=ttldata>"...

Thanks so much, it is working now It's too bad the rules in that dialog aren't more customizable, as far as building the logic for when to apply the rule and when to not. We'll make do, though thanks again

yep, we have those denies on our public folder store too, for domain and enterprise admins (me). It won't let me remove them, "Remove" is grayed out.

that was already checked, but thanks for that link.

thanks, now I'm having trouble getting it to apply the rule for the public folder. I'm an owner of the public folder, and I'm trying to create an autoreply rule, but it keeps saying the "changes cannot be saved". I gave myself send as permission to the folder, even though the folder should just...

My HR department wants to have emails that are sent to them with "resume" in the subject or body to have an auto-reply message. They have a form they want sent to the applicant, with a message template, and the from address to be "hr@ourdomain.com", instead of any one user's email address. I've...

Ok furuknap, I've been working off your "Send a SharePoint document library file as email" blog posting, and I am trying to figure out whether I should have MOSS and visual studio running on the same machine, or it is ok to do the coding on my workstation and deploy the solution to the server. I...

My company doesn't bring in consultants, much to my chagrin - penny-wise, pound foolish. I'm also looking at the possibility of creating a custom action, so someone could choose "Email Assignee" from a drop-down menu of a document.

I guess I want to create an event handler that duplicates the email notification action taken when a task is assigned to someone, and applies it to other classes of items, like when a document is assigned to someone. If only visual studio had a plain-english translation capability where I could...

Ok, I don't have any experience with custom programming in visual studio - I've only done web page and scripting related programming in recent years: ASP, PHP, VBScript, etc. Hopefully my boss will tolerate the fact that I've got to do a bit more of learning on the job than I expected to get...

now I'm thinking the workflow can run every time document changes, check to see if there is an active task assigned for that document&user (a calculated unique ID field based on the doc name and assigned user name), and then assign one if not - to avoid having a duplicate task created each time...
