Email Management and SharePoint - Microsoft Enterprise Content Management (ECM) Team Blog. My colleagues in the Exchange team have introduced a wealth of new capabilities in Exchange 2010 to support email archiving, retention and discovery but I’m often asked how an organization should think about managing emails in SharePoint as part of an overall collaboration and content management strategy. While there are no hard and fast rules, it pays to think about four distinct scenarios: Personal email management Project and case management Email archiving Records management Each of these scenarios has a set of desired outcomes and set of capabilities that best meet those outcomes so let’s take each one in turn.

Personal email management is all about empowering end users to take control of their inbox, making it easier to organize, find and take action on email. Project and case management is all about sharing information and managing a group of related artifacts in a single location with a common security model, metadata model and information management policy. A Strategy for Migrating Documents Out of Files Shares and Into SharePoint « The SharePoint Swiss Army Knife. A little while back I was working with a customer that had a seemingly simple question… “How do I help my users transition from saving their collaborative documents in unstructured file shares to a more structured environment in SharePoint?”

I thought to myself… “Well, before we let the masses start saving stuff to SharePoint, we should go over information architecture, taxonomy, governance, retention policies, quotas…. that’s quite a bit to chew… and will probably confuse the heck out of this guy I’m talking to…” So I took a few seconds to mentally flip through some of the possible options: 1. Leave the file shares as is and trust that the users will slowly adopt SharePoint over time through evangelism. “Of course my users will start using SharePoint. They love adopting new technologies!” 2. 3. Did you sense the sarcasm? Then I had an aha! So here’s the game plan (Works with SharePoint 2010 as well by the way): 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Published: May 2010 This article provides an overview of the LINQ to SharePoint provider, which enables you to use Language Integrated Query (LINQ) queries in your Microsoft SharePoint Foundation solutions. The provider also enables changing data using optimistic concurrency. Object change tracking and resolution of conflicts is also supported by LINQ to SharePoint. LINQ is a feature of the programming languages C# and Microsoft Visual Basic .NET. Compilers are included with Visual Studio. LINQ adds a SQL-like syntax and vocabulary to each of the languages, which can be used to query data sources.

But unlike other languages and query syntaxes which vary from one type of data source to another, LINQ can be used to query, in principle, any data source whatsoever. All that is necessary to make a data source accessible with LINQ is that someone create a LINQ provider for the data source. Learning about LINQ The following is an example of the use of LINQ to query SharePoint Foundation. Reference.
