I'm trying to use the XML web part to display a custom XML file. I have populated the XML Link property of the web part with the correct URL of the XML file and I have also populated the XSLT Link property accordingly. However, the message Cannot retrieve the URL specified in the XML Link...

Is it possible to copy / move portal area web parts from one portal area to another, and similarly, to move WSS site web parts from one site to another, in an automated way, as opposed to manually re-creating the web parts in the destination area / site?

When I upload a Word template (.DOT file) into a document library and then click on its link in the document library, the file opens as the Word template instead of a new document (.DOC file, based on the template). This is a problem for us because we would like to have a document library that...

One of our users has created a WSS team site, which they now want to move into the portal, rather than having to re-create it. Is it possible in any way to move a WSS site into the portal or even just the contents? Many thanks.

Having created an Event item and linked it to a Meeting Workspace. If the Event item is then deleted, the link to that instance of the Meeting (the date that was originally specified in the Event item) still exists in the Meeting Workspace with a exclamation mark next to it. If clicked, there...

Some of my users do not have the Alert Me action link displayed under the list of actions on portal pages. Is the Alert Me action dependant upon an option somewhere that needs to be enabled? Thanks in advance for all repsonses.

Advice wanted regarding where to store external content so that SharePoint can link to it. For example, if I want to embed an image in a news item, where should I store the image file ? Many thanks.

The background is that I would like to display a message stating the count of the user's unread email in an intranet page. The intranet page is launched from a log-on script, but Outlook isn't. Therefore, is it possible to get the unread email count without having Outlook open ? (Sorry, I have...

Is it possible / does anyone have an example of a script that will display the count of a user's unread email ? Can it work without Outlook being open ? Many thanks.

Is it possible to enable users to edit their SP profile without them having to have a My Site ? (If a user is not permitted to create a My Site then they do not have an Edit Profile link on their profile page. Seems, it all or nothing.)

Does anyone know of a way of re-ordering the Top-Level Area links in the Navigiation Bar (the blue bar at the top of each Area page that contains Home, Topics, Sites, etc by default) ? We've added some new Top-Level Areas to our Portal and as each one is added, SharePoint automatically adds a...

Apparently this could be done by using a WebDAV script in a custom web part to query Exchange, which would return an XML response of the number of unread e-mails, which could then be rendered using XSLT. Anyone know of any .NET examples using WebDAV ?

Is it possible to automatically create a My Site for each user rather than each user having to click on the My Site link to create it ?

Many thanks for the advise. I seem to remember reading something that said that SharePoint pages can become corrupted if edited with FrontPage ? Is this fact or fiction ?

I've read a number of warnings stating that SharePoint can be adversely affected if pages are edited using FrontPage 2003. As Microsoft state that FrontPage 2003 is designed to work with SharePoint, can anyone provide me with a clear explanation of how FrontPage should and shouldn’t be used...

Sorry, I'm new to web part programming - can you give me some more guidance or direct me to an example ? Thanks

I've created 3 news web parts but they all show the same news items. Can I filter the news web parts so that they each show a specific 'category' of news ?

We have a requirement to display different categories of news items in different news web parts, rather then just grouping all category of news in one web part as is normal in SP. Example: - A news web part showing organisational news items. A news web part showing divisional news items. A...

Can anyone explain how SP list data can be accessed through SP web services, such as Lists.asmx ? I'm thinking of using lists as a way of capturing data and then using the XML web part to display the data elsewhere in the portal. Is this feasible ?
