  • Blog Information Profile for MOSSuMS

    Feb 9 2009   Now with added Sigma
    I've been tardy updating this blog, as I've become part of SevenSigma Business Solutions, a boutique sharepoint advisory and consultancy run and staffed by people I've worked with, known and respected for many years. It's a breath of fresh air to be with like-minded souls who's central remit is NOT to repeat those same buisness and IT projects blunders we all blog about!

    Mar 17 2008   Commuting this AM I independently ran into 3 ex-colleagues from the same small firm. Now I know Perth isn't big, but that is just too weird & 'paranoidal'. So Chris, Dan and Sean - stop dabbling in Occult over IpEspFi V6 - it's freaking me out!

    Feb 20 2008   Aussie day has been and gone and things have been hectic, but I'm now on a course with the irrepressible Clayton James - with many ideas to blog about!

    Jan 21 2008   Back again, with the promised info on moving those web pages in code.

    Jan 16 2008   I'm away for a few days for a Geraldton funeral (sniff), but back in Perth I'll have something to say about moving pages between webs...

    Jan 14 2008   Happy New Year and a Happy New Blog to all - especially MOSS masters Mr P.CleverWorkarounds and Sezai "Yoda"!

  • Code Monkey Hates SharePoint

    The SharePoint Developer Maturity Model. The other ‘MS’ has a problem. Those gnarly developers that write your software on the smell off an oily Pizza Box emerge from a four day MOSS training course and sware (and I quote) “I don’t...

  • The Server Revolution

    Moving the server from the data-centre to the desktop. Lifting my gaze from the code for a few seconds, one of the things that has always stuck me with SharePoint is the similarity its impact has on businesses to the PC Revolution. The same arguments...

  • Multiple Projects, one WSPBuilder Solution

    When two (projects) become one (sharepoint solution). When I originally used WSPBuilder, after a great deal of messing about, I discovered there was a bug that prevented the 'BuildSolution' switch from working. That was a pity, as for everthing...

  • Template that

    Custom Site Definition '3rd way'. Do you want a custom site definition, but can't face copying and modifying an ONet? Need to use an OOTB Site Definiton, but also change it? Like features, but hate the issues stapling gives you? Then read...

  • Configure this

    A List of WSS and MOSS Site Definitions and Configurations. The other 'MS' have a list on OOTB content types here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms452896.aspx ( have a look in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server...

  • So you think you can change your Web Config?

    or ' Making a Feature of SPWebConfigModifications ' Part 1 - A Winner from SharePoint I know, we've all done it. Jumped into the web config and messed it about for our own evil ends (and we might even have taken a backup first). Well in the...

  • Custom List Feature Definition

    I'm a Feature Creature I wanted to add a single basic Custom List Template and Instance to my Feature, based on the built in Generic List. No new pages, content types, site columns or the such. Of course, the simple way is to create it in SharePoint...

  • Flags Attract Attention, look at used car lots!

    Hoist those flags! In the course of some work on WSS utils (a log class) quite a while ago, a fellow developer asked me about the Flags attribute I was using. Now, rightly or wrongly, I tend to festoon my code with these so it looks more like bunting...

  • Page Movers R Us

    Moving a page interactively is easy using Copy, but in code... ...you have to figure out and match the MS process, and hope they don't change it! So, having tested out calling CopyTo (works but you have to also copy over the history) and MoveTo (only...

  • Developer Build Events

    We all have a collection of these, but I use just one Post Build Event while developing: $(ProjectDir)postBuildDebug.bat "$(ProjectDir)" "$(TargetDir)" "$(DevEnvDir)" "$(TargetName)" "$(TargetFileName)" Yes, I know that's a cheat! But I find it much easier to manage in separate file...

  • Binding to lists in ye olde ascx user control

    I've been integrating some existing user controls into sharepoint, and wanted to replace the xml data bindings with lists, (but not make any other changes - I'm lazy like that). But blow me if there wasn't much info if you weren't in a webpart or didn't like GUID references! So this is the simplest solution I could came up with - no complex CAML or nested data yet, but I'll revisit that as needs arise...
