    - WSS v2 SP2: Custom formula column for file extension Hi all, i would like to create a custom column in a Windows Sharepoint Services V2 SP2 document library, to extract the file extension using a formula. Is it possible to create a formula using built-in functions like substring/indexof, substr/charindex, or InStr/Mid based on the falue of the FileName column of a document library without creating custom WebParts? regards Joris Tag: Search using WSS Tag: 49277

    - Conditional formatting of SQL data in sharepoint I am creating a sharepoint site using Microsoft Sharepoint designer 2007 beta with SQL data in it. I need to put conditional formatting on the table so when the system time is greater than a record's time (a string field which has time inputs in the format of 00:00), the record will turn red. So I need to fill in an advanced filter in sharepoint that will get the system time in the format of 00:00 and return a true result if the system time is greater than the time field. thanks Richard Ashdown Tag: Search using WSS Tag: 49272

    - FrontPage and soap:Server Exception of type Microsoft.SharePoint.SoapServer.SoapServerException was thrown Hi, I didn't find a solution to this problem when searching google groups, so I'll post my solution. When editing the default.aspx home page through Front Page 2003 I received the error- soap:Server Exception of type Microsoft.SharePoint.SoapServer.SoapServerException was thrown. A Web Part or Web Form Control on this Web Part Page cannot be displayed or imported because it is not registered as safe on this site. You may not be able to open this page in an HTML editor that is compatible with Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services, such as Microsoft Office FrontPage. To fix this page, contact the site administrator to have the Web Part or Web Form Control configured as safe. You can also remove the Web Part or Web Form Control from the page by using the Web Parts Maintenance Page. If you have the necessary permissions, you can use this page to disable Web Parts temporarily or remove personal settings. For more information, contact your site administrator. When browsing to the page through IE, all was fine. This is a development server, so natually developers will play around and things start to fall apart. What I did was 1. Remove webpart that I thought was causing problem through stsadm -o deletewppacks xxxxxx.cab 2. In the web page using IE, Edit page-->Modify Shared Web Parts-->Browse web parts 3. In Web Part Page Gallery (gallery containing all closed web parts for page), there existed several webparts with ERROR! as their name. 4. Drag ERROR! web part on page and then delete. 5. Remove all ERROR! web parts. Once this is done, I was able to edit the default.aspx home page with no problems. Unfortunately FrontPage 2003 can't handle pages with error web parts that well.

    - WSSv3 Search Stopped Updating Index We've been using WSSv3 for a couple weeks, and just last week, the Search service stopped updating the index -- I can search and find stuff indexed previously, but at a certain point, the index is no longer getting updated (for any site). I've restarted the WSSv3 Search service, made sure there were no apparent problems with the Search database, and even restarted the WSSv3 server. My WSSv3 server is connecting to a separate box running SQL Server 2000. Through Central Administration, I've confirmed the Search service is configured correctly, and that the content database is correctly configured to use the search service on the WSSv3 server.

    - Replacing the "All Items" view from a List or Library. I saw some similar questions but not exactly what I need. The default "All Items" view is a Standard mode view, so to display it in Datasheet mode you have to select "Edit in Datasheet Mode" each time you go in and out of the "All Items" view. Since you can not change the "All Items" view to datasheet mode, can I create a new "All Documents" view in datasheet view and delete the All Items view without crashing the list? I ask because a few times in the past, I have deleted "default" items like "reader" and replaced them with another only to crash the list, library, or the whole installation. So I am very careful now before just deleting any default item. Thanks Tag: Search using WSS Tag: 49231

    - Document Template in Custom Doc Lib I have a strange behavior that I can't seem to pinpoint what is going on. I have created my own custom site defintion with 2 new additional document libraries. For each doc library, they have their own respective document templates. One Doc Library called "Design", the document templates are template1.dgn and template2.dgn. The other doc library called "Drawing", the document templates are template1.dwt and template2.dwt. When I go to the explorer view of the Design doc lib, and inspect the forms folder for the the file sizes of the two document templates are 20&30KB and when I drag and drop them to my desktop they are the 20&30KB respectively. However, when I go to the explorer view of the Drawing doc lib, and inspect the forms folder for the the file sizes of the two document templates. They are 30Kb and 25KB respectively. This is correct as well. But, when I drag and drop them to my desktop, they become 1KB each. Why is the file size changing. This is causing errors whereby I am trying to create a new document with the document template from sharepoint. Any ideas? Tag: Search using WSS Tag: 49205

    - Import web page Hello all, I'm new to Sharepoint Services. Just installed about a week a go and I'm in the middle configuring it for an Intranet here at work. We'll have about 80 users visiting the site. The installation went fine and seems to be operating as designed. I'm wondering if there is a way to 'import' an existing HTML page so that when a link is clicked, the page displays in the existing site instead of opening up a new window and showing only that page and it's layout. I have some very plan information pages I would like to load in the middle web part when a link is clicked. Additionally, I've done all my editing either in the Sharepoint interface or using Notepad. What's the best XML editor to use for Sharepoint pages? I'd prefer to stay away from FP if that is feasible. I do have a lot of experience with HTML, CSS etc. Sharepoint and XML are new to me.

    - Reusable content editor web part Hey Community I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Also let me know if this post would be better in another Group. So my question is is it possible to to have a Content Web Editor part that you could save to a LIST page for use later like the announcements part. Currently when you close the webpart all the content it held is gone. The reason why i ask I have a company that would like to use this to create a newletter but they dont want to display on the CWE parts in teh production page till someone reviewss the articles. If you were able to lets say create a content web editor web part name and save it on a Doc Lib then have the person responsible can then create a Page through the create menu in site setting or use an existing one and just drag and drop the parts in the layout/order he sees fit without worrying which article are displayed to the public without being checked first. If this cant be done out the box does anyone know if there is a product/website/blog providing the solution. I would reallly appreciate all input.

When I try to connect to WSS I get the following error : Cannot connect to the configuration database.

I can't check method 3 since I don't have a Microsoft SQL server option under Programs. I think it is because I work with the MSDE-version.

    - A SharePoints Documents Question NOTE: I first posted this question in windows.server.sbs - I know that cross-posting is frowned upon, but then I discovered this site which seems more appropriate to my question. I apologize if this offends anyone. We are now just beginning to play around with SharePoint, starting with General Documents. Here is my understanding from what I've done so far. On the sbs server, we have lots of work files in a folder named 'Public' which everyone shares. We would like to have 3-5 users be able to access those files, both while in the office and from home. To try out SharePoint I created a folder under General Documents called 'Shared' and copied some test files from 'Public' over to 'Shared'. And as expected, those files were accessible remotely. I only copied a few test files over because of two concerns: One, the duplicating of existing files - and secondly, the doubling of space used. -- However, when I went to the server and did a search for the files, all of them still resided in the original 'Public' folder. So, my understanding is that files copied from within SharePoint to a new folder in General Documents aren't really copied, but are only linked. Is this true? If it is true, this will work nicely for us. Thanks, Leon Tag: Search using WSS Tag: 49172

    - Can't get Search configured/running under WSS 3.0 Beta 2 Hi all, any help with this one would be appreciated... I have a WSS 2.0 site running on the same system with SQL Server 2005. The site is/was working flawlessly. I installed WSS 3.0 beta 2 and chose to do an upgrade of the existing site. Everything works great after the upgrade... except for Search. I get to the Central Admin page to configure Search on my web application, and fill out the form... when I try to hit OK, I get an error page that states "Error" as the title and "Unknown error" as the subtext. Not very helpful. :) The event log shows that some part of the process was trying to log into SQL Server and apparently the login failed. Following this is an error: "Unknown SQL exception 2812 occurred. Could not find shared procedure dbo.proc_MSS_GetConfiguration_Property." If I manually remove the Search table from SQL Server using the SQL Server Manager and then manually create the table, then go and try to configure search, I can see event log entries indicating schema elements being added to the table successfully etc, then the above error. Odd part is: the credentials with which I am trying to set up Search are the Domain Admin user/pass, and these are both known to be correct and known to work properly for pretty much everything else in the site, including creating/deleting/manipulating the table in SQL.

In the administration interface, I would then select relevant variables for the sales force to view and edit in the contacts with consumers such as registration number, adress information, when was the car repaired, etc. etc. As accessing a database via an administration interface over the web to configure a view of that database sounds very generic, I was wondering if anyone of you knows of any third-party or Microsoft web parts that could do that trick? I found a web part on the Microsoft web parts gallery site that sounded promising ("Customer Directory" in "Great Plains") but the detail page link for that web part is broken unfortunately. Big thanks in advance if someone has any good suggestions!! Tag: Search using WSS Tag: 49137

How can we implement basic Search functionality for some documents in WSS?

Thanks for your time.
