UK SharePoint Team : SharePoint and Records Management: Part 1 of 4 This blog series will address the role that SharePoint can play in Records Management within an organization and the abilities and functionality that can be leveraged from the platform. The blog consists of four posts: 1. Introduction to Records Management, and Definition of Terms (this post) 2. Records Management using Standard SharePoint Features 3. 4. The blog presents my views as a SharePoint expert into the vast and complex world of Records Management. Part 1: Introduction to Records Management, and Definition of Terms SharePoint is an excellent platform that covers a multitude of scenarios and functions within a business. Given this ability to manage, store, collaborate on and dispose of documents, SharePoint naturally extends into the world of Records Management.

Home - SharePointHosting.com's - SharePoint Demystified SharePoint Users Group of DC > Home TS Web Access Step-by-Step Guide: Customizing TS Web Access by Using Windows SharePoint Services Updated: February 23, 2008 Applies To: Windows Server 2008 Terminal Services Web Access (TS Web Access) is a role service in the Windows Server® 2008 operating system that enables users to access RemoteApp™ programs or the full terminal server desktop from a Web site. By default, the TS Web Access Web site enables you to point to a single terminal server or to a single terminal server farm to populate the list of RemoteApp programs that appear on the site. If you have multiple terminal servers or multiple terminal server farms, you can use Windows® SharePoint® Services to create a single Web access point for RemoteApp programs and full terminal server desktop connections that are available on different terminal servers. You can customize a Windows SharePoint Services site by adding multiple TS Web Access Web Parts, each pointing to a different terminal server or terminal server farm. Before you install Windows SharePoint Services, ensure that the server meets the following prerequisites:

Using Log Parser with SharePoint - Todd Klindt's SharePoint Admin Blog A recent blog post of Joel Oleson's got me thinking about who visits my blog. I run my blog on my own server and I have access to all of the logs. SharePoint sits on top of IIS and I can get all the information I need from the IIS logs. I knew I wanted to get some information about the visitors to my blog, but I needed to decide exactly what information I wanted. The downside of Log Parser is that it can be tough to get up to speed on. Like I mentioned before, I was mainly interested in the stats mentioned in Joel's blog post. Number of unique users Number of subscribers Top IP hits What referrers were sending people to my site Which pages were most popular How much data out Which HTTP status codes are being generated To make things easy for this blog post I'll be getting all of these states for a one month period. First I installed Log Parser and LPL on my SharePoint server. You can see there are a lot of log types that Log Parser can log and LPL provides samples for each. tk

Learning Tree - Resource Library Code, Articles, Discussion on Microsoft Technologies : Switch the sharepoint webpart page Display Mode into Edit Mode and Vice Versa Recently one of my clients had a requirement to go into Edit mode of a sharepoint page using a manual link displayed in quick launch. He was lazy of going to Site Actions -> Edit Page and then again going somewhere else for Exit Edit Mode :) To give some background for beginners, whenever we click Edit Page on Site Actions menu,the pages switches into a different display mode called Design Mode. Its not a feature ofSharepoint, but ASP.NET 2.0 Webparts Framework. Background For example, to programmatically switch the current page into design mode, you can simply add a link control with an event handler that sets the DisplayMode property to DesignDisplayMode. WebPartManager1.DisplayMode = WebPartManager.DesignDisplayMode; Although this would work technically, but it would not give up the visible changes to page, like visibilty of Page Editing toolbar, webpart zones etc. This would be present in default.master. Building the Webcontrol

SharePoint Spot Point2Share : SharePoint and Querystrings Recently did a little bit of playing with querystrings (at the end of the URL, that is after the .aspx, put a '?' then the value below, to use more than one use an '&'), thought it might be something other people are interested in. Strange that I haven't really stumbled across these documented anywhere else, it might just be that I haven't been reading the right documents! (I'm sure that if this is the case it will be politely pointed out to me!) Let me know if you have any others and I will add them to the list. Finally (there is always a finally isn't there?)
