    - Autmoted upload of document to SharePoint Good day! I am looking for a sample script that can be used within a VB.NET/C# application for uploading documents to a specific folder within a document library. Specifically, I have several reports that are generated daily. These reports must be uploaded to the current day's older, Monday, Tuesday, etc. These folders contain the same reports but from the previous week so the existing files need to be overwritten (or deleted before uploading the new versions). The upload process must be automated so that it can be scheduled. Can anyone provide a sample script or point me to the location of a specific script that will solve this problem? -- Respectfully, Andrew Corley, MCSD, MCDBA Tag: Programmatically READ List Permissions Tag: 17681

    - Alerts on Documents We want to use WSS to host the company's Policies and Procedures. So I have to find out a way to have WSS send an alert or e-mail when a policy is due for review. So I need an e-mail/alert to go out about 18 months after it is uploaded. Can anyone suggest a way for me to do this? Tag: Programmatically READ List Permissions Tag: 17680

    - Adding users to a site under Windows sharepoint services Hi All, This is the situation that I'm seeing and wondered if anyone else has experienced similar behaviour. I create a new sharepoint site by doing the following: create --> Sites and workspaces. I add a site title and description and a web site address. I then set the permissions to be unique. and click create. (the site is created correctly using a blank template) I then want to add new users, so I do the following: Site Settings --> Manage users --> Add Users. for most users, the "Confirm Users" section provides me with three sets of information. namely: an e-mail address (non editable) User Name (editable) Display Name (editable) This is fine. Now comes the problem! I have a particular user in active directory which I add to the site and when I type her details, I end up with the above fields as follows: an e-mail address (non editable) User Name (non editable) Display Name (non editable) note that the user Name and Display name become non-editable. Can anyone explain to me why this is happening? I confirm the details and the user is added with her "Married" name (this is based on her e-mail address) I suspect that the problem might be due to the setup of the user in active directory, but I can't sure. My colleague on the other hand follows the same procedure on his machine. the fields in question are all editable, but the user is added with her "Maiden" name. Strange behaviour! Any ideas anyone? help would be appreciated. Tag: Programmatically READ List Permissions Tag: 17664

    - Password Changes failing for non-admins Users on my WSS install can change their own password if they are an admin in the subweb they are logged into. However, if they are not an admin, the password change fails. Basically, any time the user is prompted to enter their original password, then the new password, the change doesn't take ("Error changing password"). However, if they only have to enter the new password on the password change page, it changes just fine. Any ideas? Please? Tag: Programmatically READ List Permissions Tag: 17660

    - Dynamic Menus in Lists I would like to create a list that has a menu with choices, I would then like to have fields on the lower part of the newform.aspx display based on what choice you've selected. I've looked into inserting data web components and have created multiple lists that I would like to tie in to this but I want each list to display on the form based on what is chosen in the selection menu. The whole scenario is we're working on a Help system to handle desktop support, facilities, phone, network, and other issues/departments. I want to gather the person's name, location, desciption, and problem area. Then from problem area I want additional fields to display based on what is chosen. For instance if you select phone from the menu additional fields will display with inputs for old jack#, new jack#, d.i.d, ect... I wouldn't mind creating this lists seperately and then applying a rule/conditional format that states to only display each list when a certain selection is made. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I don't mind digging into a little code but I hope it's not necessary considering the abundance of Sharepoint.

    - Connection Timeout problem Iâ??m new to WSS and need some help. I have a Small Business Server with a WSS site shared through the IAS firewall to the internet. From the internet I can access picture libraries fairly consistently on the published site. (Some very large pictures time out.) I canâ??t open files in the Documents, Lists, and Discussions libraries. I keep getting the error â??Page cannot be displayedâ??â?¦ â??100600 Connection Timeoutâ??. I have the same problem trying to add new items to the lists. I can open the page to add content, but I get the timeout no the next page that actually posts the content. I have no problems viewing or adding content from the local network. Other users of the site report the same problem from the internet. Any body have any suggestions on where to look for the problem?

    - 9 things I hate about SharePoint Services Don't get me wrong, I really like Windows SharePoint Services, but like any version 1 product, there's plenty of room for improvement. (I hope the Microsoft guys are listening, because these are things I'd really like to see them address in the near future.) These are things that deal directly with the user experience in WSS and not administration or extensibility. 9. No Gant charts. It would be really nice to be able to create a Gant Chart view of a task list. That functionality would allow better project management. 8. Discussions lists. There's nothing more annoying than attempting to read a discussion thread that is deep. You click on a post to read it and then when you use the back button to return to the main list, everything has collapsed and scrolled to the top. It would be nice if I could at least click on the deepest post and see all of the posts back to the root. 7. No support for summary tasks. I realize that this is venturing into MS Project territory, but if we're going to pretend to use SharePoint in project planning, let's do it right. 6. No support for calendars based on calculated dates. This isn't as big as some of my other items, but it is something that I have found annoying. 5. No granularity in Alerts. There's nothing less useful than an alert that tells me a task item has changed without any indication of what has changed in that item. Along those lines, I'd also like to have the ablility to set up an alert that is only triggered when the status of a given item changes. 4. No personal default view. Each list has a default view that is set by an admin or web designer. It would be nice if a site user could set a different view as their own default so that when they visit the list, they see what they want, not what the web designer fealt was an appropriate default view for the masses. For example, in a task list, a developer probably wants to see "My Tasks", not everyone's tasks. 3. No item change history. It would be very nice if I could turn on a change history for items in a given list. This would allow for a better post-mordem look at what went well or not-so-well on a project. 2. No support for lists of items within a list item. For example, I can add a Hyperlink column to a list item, but I'd like to be able to add a list of hyperlinks to a list item. (If I could do that, I could at least create my own pseudo summary task items :) 1. No Exchange Server integration. Why is it that I have to import a list of contacts from Outlook? Why can't I simply designate an Exchange group and add additional metadata about those users (e.g, add roles for each user.) Likewise, why can't I connect a SharePoint object to an Exchange public calendar? Then updates in one place would appear in the other. This would be nice for users who use SharePoint sites behind a corporate firewall but have access to the Exchange server through Outlook Web Access... no need to create the VPN connection to lookup something in the calendar. It would also allow the roadwarrior with Outlook 2003 to effectively take the calendar with them on the road because of Outlook's local caching. There's some other potential integration points that would be really nice, like integration with an MS Project Server installation or the up-and-coming Visual Studio 2005 Team Services server.

    - Avoid multiple-login when editing files in SPS2003 without logon to AD Hi there, Would like to ask question 'how to avoid multiple login when editing files in sps2003, when the client machine didn't logon to domain controller' My case like this, all servers centralised in site1, all users centralised in site2, site3, site4, site5. Site2-5 would like to access site1 server's via https. Then I setup sps2003 server in site1, not yet with SSL encryption, & let site2-5 users access it. After the initial login, all users can browse the files. However when they edit any file on sps2003, it prompted for login again. For client side, machines are wxpsp2+office2003sp1, or wxpsp1+office2003sp1. Already tried the trusted site, 'auto logon with current username & password', both cannot help.

    - Document checkout, etc. Hello, We're very new to SharePoint, and have installed it (and SP1) on our Win2003 server in the hope of getting it to work without too much setting up. One odd thing we've noticed is with with Shared Documents. It seems to be that you can edit and save a document without checking it out. Also, if versioning is enabled you create a new version every time you save a document, not just every time you check it back in. Is this the case or am I missing something? What we'd like to achieve is the this: a) No-one can edit a document unless they've checked it out. b) Once checked out a new version will be stored when the document is checked in. c) If one user has a document checked out other users may see read-only versions of the original document and may do save/as, but may not edit the original.

But tomorrow would display me 6 and 8. Logical formula would be to create a calculated field [today]-[date], but calculated fields don't allow to use [today]. Is this possible? Thanks.

    - SPPS 2001 to SPPS 203 hi everyone I need to migrate a SP portal server 2001 to SP portal server 2003 and i can´t find a clean path. i found some information about it, but is quite confusing. i have one server with windows 2000 server and SPPS 2001 and another with windows 2003 and SPPS 2003. two different machines. as far as i read, smigrate.exe is for wss, not for SPPS. upgrade.exe is to perform an in place migration, using just one machine. spin and spout just copy documents, or documents libraries. what about the rest of the structure? at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/office/sps2003/deploy/spst2003.mspx, ms says that "You can use Upgrade.exe to create an archive file (also called an XML manifest file) on a Windows 2000 Server-based computer running SharePoint Portal Server 2001. This archive file stores all of the data from a SharePoint Portal Server 2001 portal site except for the actual document content, including workspace names, categories, keywords, best bets, subscriptions, and content sources." is this how the structure is created? how to restore in SPPS 2003?

    - WSS SP1 Upgrade Issue System Configuration: Windows 2003 Server with SPS 2003 SP1 and WSS SP1. SQL Server 2000 with SP3 (on same server as SPS and WSS). Hosted on this server are both SPS 2003 and WSS sites. I have a virtual website that has been extended with WSS and is not a SPS portal. http://suppliers.glasstech.com After installing SP1 for both WSS and SPS 2003, I now have the following problem: When I first go to the supplier site: http://suppliers.glasstech.com, I'll get the following: ERROR Cannot complete this action Please try again later Hit the HOME button in the upper left portion of the site and usually the site loads (sometime you have to hit it a few times). Once loaded everything seems to be fine. I also have sub-sites under this site which will do the same. So far this problem has not shown up on the SPS 2003 sites. Event Log shows the following error: Event Type: Error Event Source: Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 Event Category: Devices Event ID: 1000 Date: 9/21/2004 Time: 9:21:32 PM User: N/A Computer: GLASSIIS02 Description: Error: RuntimeFilter: Failed to load all runtime filter configurations or the runtime filter component Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

    - How to set user name from WSS site into InfoPath field I know how to set user name as login, for example: var objNetwork = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Network"); XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:Request/my:FIO_manager").text = objNetwork.UserName; So I get, for example 'manager_login' And I need his display name in this field - that name, which displayed on my WSS site. I also tried to set connection with WSS site, and set default value in this field by usin 'Created By' field, but I get the same login. Is it possible to do what I want or not?

I want to be able to programmatically read a permission mask and determine if
certain permissions are contained within the permission mask. MS's
documentation shows how to set it, but then the number that comes back when
you read the permission mask's .ToString method is totally useless to me
becuase it doesn't tell me anything about what the actual permissions are
within the mask.

Can anyone provide me with some guidance on how to read this property and
parse it to find out if it has certain permissions?

Thanks,
Stephajn
