    - export sharepoint contacts to outlook (problem with lists) Hi, I have a custom list which holds a whole lot of contacts. One of the columns in for 'Company' which reads from another list in sharepoint. When we export the contacts the 'Company' field always has an ID number instead of the title text for the company. Is there any way of making this export/synchronise the text value instead of the number?? Any info would be great. Thanks. Tag: hii Tag: 65001

    - SQL Server 2000 Upgrade Query Hi I've got a web farm install with sharepoint 2007 and sql server sitting on the same box; this was always temporary while we waited for a new server for SQL. What I wanted to check is am I best upgrading to sql 2005 first on the current box and then migrating or migrate to the new box first and then upgrade sql server? If you're just upgrading from Sql server 2000 to 2005 do you need to do anything with sharepoint 2007 - I couldn't find any definitive information. regards Matt Tag: hii Tag: 64991

    - The user does not exist or is not unique. Howdy, Here's my scenario: A admin user (not me I swear) deleted about 20 users from our WSS3 ADAC site. In adding the users back in they all have a number affixed to their user names. I'm guessing Sharepoint is doing that due to unique SIDs and whatever. Anyway, we don't want the numbered names so i created the new user directly in the SharePoint OU of AD and then used the stsad migrateuser command to migrate the user from the numberd account to the normal account. This new account without the number can login successfully! However, when they go to change their password, they get the following error: The user does not exist or is not unique. I'm guessing this is due to the fact that SharePoint now has two user names cached or stored wherever it stores it but each of the same names have different SIDs. Again, this is a huge guess. So, anyone know how I can get around this? Is there a SQL table I can just modify the numbered user account manually? I know that's a no-no but I need this to work.

    - Hiding columns from a user group.. Good day, Within my WSS v3 Intranet site I have created a Staff Listing for such information as full name, address (we have 14 offices), phone number, etc. I have also created a couple of columns within the list that I'd like to hide or filter out somehow from non-administrative accounts. Basically the Views are set up so that there is a listing of the user, phone, fax, and office location. This keeps the view nice and clean. If the staff clicks on one of the staff members listed, they get the complete details, which is what I want as there is also a digital pic of all staff, as well as off hours contact information, personal fax numbers, etc. But my problem is that I'd like to have these couple of additional columns for each user, but only want Administrative accounts to be able to see them. Is there any way to hide, filter out, or deny view permissions to these two columns? TIA - Joe Tag: hii Tag: 64982

    - problem getting to sites from internet I brought up a new server with the latest WSS installed. I cannot get the site to come up from the internet. Here's what I have tried so far: To be sure IIS was working and to test connectivity I set up http://test28.leeallen.org with a simple htm page. This site serves up to any computer including my PDA and cell phone. This proved that the network is connected and that IIS seems to be working ok. Next I configured the sharepoint site to accept all port 80 requests as well as the specific url of http://moss.leeallen.org, I also enabled anonymous access for the site in both IIS and Sharepoint. This site will serve up on the server machine so WSS is working, But from any internet machine you get an "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage." error message. I'm stumped. Is there some IIS or WSS security property that prevents the site from displaying from other machines. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. I don't know where to look next.

    - Delete large number of calendar event items Many of our schools that are using Sharepoint 2003 are using the calendar for many different topics and as a result the number of events from the last two or three years has grown to be quite large.

    - Content Editor Web Part Passing Current User Hello, I am trying to deliver embedded content from an application I have written into SharePoint 2007 (MOSS). I am trying to use the Content Editor Web Part and configure it to use a URL to get the HTML from the other application (on the same server). However, I need the request to the custom app to either be in the context of the requesting user or to pass the current user name in the Querystring. I know I could just write a custom Web Part to handle this but I was hoping to make it easy on myself. Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks Tag: hii Tag: 64970

    - overlay sharepoint list with refreshed excel file I've got a two-fold issue. I'd like to take an excel sheet within a spreadsheet that gets updated/overlayed on a daily basis with the latest data and update the sharepoint list without sharepoint thinking every item in the list is new. The ultimate problem I'm trying to solve is to have alerts on each item in the list, only when data values change, but sharepoint seems to think the item changed when it really hasn't and alerts the user. What I tried to do is keep the id field and just overlay the rest of the data in the spreadsheet. Sharepoint saw that as a change and sent the alert. I need to capture new list items from that spreadsheet and data changes to existing list items. If there's a way to do this without having to write code? Tag: hii Tag: 64968

    - Issue with people-picker showing as drop-down with all users I have several document libraries set-up - some of which have custom columns that reference Groups of people.. For instance - I may have a column called "Test Person" and it is set to allow selection of people from a Sharepoint Group called "Test Group" - let's say in Test Group there are three users: User 1 User 2 User 3 Now let's say that all users of the site includes those users plus two more named User 4 and User 5. For whatever reason in my Sharepoint site - when editing any of my documents or creating new ones when the document's Web File Properties page comes up - the people picker is replaced with a drop-down that contains ALL users - so in the above example it would contain Users 1 to 3 AND 4 to 5. Please help. I know this was working before and suddenly - it's not - how do I get the people-picker back? Note - the people piker works if I edit the properties of the document directly through Sharepoint - but not when saving from WORD to Sharepoint. Tag: hii Tag: 64967

    - WSS3 + Win2K3 x64 Installation Woes I've been working at this for several days but am not making any progress. I've got no experience with WSS, IIS or SQL Svr 2005. WSS3 on 2K3 x64 requires the full SQL Svr to be installed. I've installed SQL Svr 2005 Std x64 with default settings opting to install only the Server package - all remaining options were unchecked. I've applied no additional changes to the Surface Area Configuration. There were no errors during the install. I installed WSS3 using the walkthrough at the Sharepoint Forum. No errors were reported. On completion of the wizard the Central Administration site did not open - I received the HTTP Error 404 text. I pressed ahead and added the URL to the Trusted Sites on the server, checked the URL from a network PC using Firefox, and also manually added /default.aspx. No joy. I was asked for a Username and Password in Firefox however the next page was HTTP Error 404. IIS reports SharePoint Central Administration v3 as Running under the Web Sites node with the default port 10806. All site files and folders appear to be fine. The Web Service Extensions node has ASP.NET v2.0.50727 Allowed and Windows SharePoint Services V3 was added during installation and is Allowed. I understand SQL Svr installs several services disabled by default, could that be the issue? I see several errors in the Event Log which I'll review tomorrow (it's 2am!). Is there anything obvious so far? Tag: hii Tag: 64927

    - Make Your Site Quick To Load! The time it takes to load your site can make or break a visitor's first impression of your site. If your site takes too long to load, the visitor will click "Stop" or "Back" and leave your web site. If you are a business and offering people important information, it is critical to have a nice design, with a quick load time. You may want to check out the load time of your page, to indeed see if your site loads quick enough for the average user. A great site tool can be found at http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/ where you are able to enter your site and it displays a report on the time it takes to load your site on different connections, in addition to tips to decrease load time. Upon doing a speed test, if your first page takes a great time to load in the visitor's browser, it is in the best interest to do some redesigning to decrease load time and increase the number of visitors that will not click back on the browser. We must remember that not everyone is running on DSL or Cable modem. Many users still dial up using a 56K connection. As web designers and site maintainers, we want to ensure our site's load quickly, as to not lose potential visitors to your site. Images, Sounds & Animations are the major menaces to download time. While these add nicely to a site, they may take up a lot of time to load. If you may avoid large sized files, please do. Many images may be optimized to look the same, however taking up less space, and download more quickly. Many image editors such as Adobe Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro can perform these tasks. Sounds & Videos should be avoided on your main page, as they take up most time to load. Keep these for inner pages if possible. Videos and sound files can be from 100 KB to 1 MB in size or larger. If the user needs to load a 500 KB video file on a 56 K modem, it will take upwards to 89 seconds to complete. This definitely could turn the user away from your site. So keep these files to a fairly small size, or avoid if possible. Text can also play a significant role in the load time. If you have a large amount of HTML code and large amount of content on your main page, it will also increase the load time. Text however is not as significant, as the entire text you have on the site may not be even the same size as a couple of pictures combined. So limit the large sized graphics on your web sites. Your visitors will appreciate the fast loading site with the information being presented that they are looking for! http://cncarrental.cn/html/Internet/20060929/31900.html Tag: hii Tag: 64925

    - Sharepoint (wss v3) questions. Good day, I hope you can help I am looking at purchasing a hosted sharepoint solution from 1 of the many providers available. Before I do I just wanted to make sure that WSS v3 can do what I want it to. Most providers offer X amount of "sub sites" I was wondering what a Sub site is? I have used a WSS v3 before and I when I use it properly I want a separate section of the site to be for each department/project of my company. For example we will have the main site this will contain basic company news, holidays, meetings coming up. I then require each project we work on to have its own separate space on the site for example "project 1" will have its own members and files / forum. "project 2" will have the same as project 1 and so on. Then I would also have such spaces as "sales" "support" etc etc. Do all these count as sub sites? Or would it depend how I would make them. My second question is about permissions. After inviting a user to my site as say a normal reader and then I want them to be an admin of the site how do I edit the permissions of that user? Last of all, if I do have my site set up with "project 1" "project 2" etc how do I setup users so they only have access to certain projects for example if I want contractors working from home to only have access to 1 section of my site how do I do this?

Generally I'm a software developer (.NET) with ASP.NET experience, but without experience with any form of Sharepoint. I need to have fallowing modules/functionalities in intranet: - organization structure (based on data from AD), - sharing documents (for some group with possibility to edit/read depending on rights in AD) - reservation's resources(conferences rooms, cars, video equipment etc.) - news (everybody can add news, but only admin can approve it) - events calendar (global and group based) with notification on mail. - training calendar (with possibility of joining to training, uploading training materials, etc.) - some kind of reporting services (but based on external databases - db2, informix, etc.) - faq - dashboard - photo gallery - some forms/survey to collect opinions from users - some kind of statistics for admins I suppose some of the functionalities described above are available in sharepoint (maybe require little modifications), another I need to write myself.

    - Unable to Edit User Information I have added WSS site to existing Sharepoint Portal server. We don't integrate with AD, and use local Windows User (of the server) instead. So, when we add the new user to the site, there's no email address for the created user account. When we try to edit the User Information, it only shows the account name, without other fields at all. I try to edit in SSP, but there's no Email Address field there. I already use administrator account. Without email address for the account, how does the Alert Me feature work? Or Workflow email, etc? Anyone help? Regards, Gunady Ng Tag: hii Tag: 64845

    - Help on extending/customizing WSS 3.0 surveys Hi there, I was hoping someone you could point me to some good online resources or purchasable books that can give me some hands-on help in extending WSS 3.0 survey using features/and OR Sharepoint Designer/VS Studio. I've not found much yet online. I've only found a Kiwi Survey Plus webpart thats nice but doesn't help in extending the layout and the type of survey question you can present. If I cant find any realworld examples, then is there a 3rd party survey tool that can easily integrate with a WSS intranet site (users in active directory) Any help is appreciated!

    - Changing Ownership of a Document Hi -- This problem sounds soooo simple to overcome, but it seems to be one hard nut ... or maybe I'm just missing something. I have a fairly large number of "documents" in a set WSS 2.0 doc libraries. I need the ability to make a different person the owner (Author) of the document. I am looking for the quickest and easiest PROGRAMMATIC solution and hopefully this is something I can create a utility out of. Here is a synopsis of the solutions I've looked at: - Looked at using the SPList to extract the File into a MemoryStream, Delete the Document from the Library, then started looking into changing Security Context to Re-Add the File to SPList under this new Security Context ... This changing of Security Context looks very hairy ... - Looked at the WSSCONTENT Database and seeing if I just flip something around back here and spoof Sharepoint into the desired result. This of course is completely non-supported and disqualifies MS support down the road ... Since this didn't really prove itself to be "low hanging fruit" ... and is inherently dangerous from a support perspective ... I abandonded. Am I missing something, or is this just a nut-cracker special? Any insights on this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, --Rich Tag: hii Tag: 64825

    - help with alternate access mappings hello, I'm trying to get sharepoint to work from 2 offices via VPN. the VPN works fine (vpn is used for term server and printing). I need sharepoint to work from both offices - from the office with the servers sharepoint works fine but from the other office I get error saying permission denied. I've gone to the alternate access mappings and setup the IP address of the sharepoint server as an extranet. However it still doesn't work. What else can I do to make sharepoint work from the other end of the VPN tunnel? Thanks, Oskar Tag: hii Tag: 64819

    - Sharepoint for just document management I need a document management program for doing constituent services in a government office. When someone calls in with an issue, I want to create an electronic file folder for them, which I can attach documents to (including PDF's). After looking through the Sharepoint website, it looks like the program does this, but it seems that Microsoft has placed much more of an emphasis on making it a document sharing program, rather than management.

Seems like a case for this 2004-written free web part

from now-MVP Jan Tielens.

With it you can as Admin specify Alerts for users.
