    - Links in new window, and Mess. status Hi, I have two questions: I want to make that all those links which navigates away from the portal would open in a new window -- so for example the "Links" list items would open in a new window. Is that possible? And the other one: How can I put the Messenger online status next to someone's e-mail addredd in a Contacts list (I want the same thing as it is with the "Modified by" things, but in a contactlist)? If you know answer for at least one of my questions, please let me know. Thanks, Szajd (Daniel Said) Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 3121

    - Data View Web Part Caching I'm using the dataview webpart to display RSS feeds. It works beautifully, but I'd like to know what the cache options actually do. I have it set to "Default" in the Miscellaneous section of the options for the web part and the cache time-out setting is 0 by default. What does this mean in practice? .... is the server downloading the RSS file every time the page is requested, or does it mean something else...... Also, I can't open pages with these webparts in Frontpage 2003 ("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...." etc) Is there any documentation on this? Thanks Leslie Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 3106

    - Installing DC after WSS has been installed means trouble ? Hello people, First of all: a very happy 2004 to you all ! Now, I had a Windows 2003 server installed with WSS on SQL 2000 working just fine (all on the same machine, together with IIS). For some specific reasons, I had to upgrade the machine and install active directory (make it a DC) at a later stage. This installation has "broken down" my WSS and I am having some trouble to get it back on line. I first got the "Service Unavailable" errors and cured this by selecting the right application pool on the virtual server in IIS (why was this changed during the DC-installation ?). However, once I go to my WSS home page, I always get a "You are not authorized to view this page" error, even if I'm loged on as the administrator on the server itself. I think the connection between WSS and SQL or at least the rights of the account that connects to the SQL-server got messed up somewhere along the road, since the initial settings in the "set configuration database server" of my WSS administration pages now gives me an "create database permission denied" error. I think I should be able to solve this by adding an account to the SQL WSS database (NT Authority/Network account ?) and set the correct rights to it, but I don't want to mess around with this before I'm sure. Also, if this is the case indeed, why do I need to do this ? Should I had the DC installed before installing SQL/WSS/DC/IIS ? If so, what would be the best thing to get this up-and-running ? I have no problem re-installing one of the above applications it this solves the problem, rather than messing around with accounts and maybe forgetting a couple of settings... Many thanks in advance for your advice ! Regards, Benoit. Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 3100

    - reinstating mssql$sharepoint service I still have the problem from my original post (12/31/03 - can't connect to configuration database), and I'm wondering if (part of?) the problem is that I don't have the mssql$sharepoint service installed. However - If I attempt to reinstall msde, I get an invalid instance name error. I know that I can specify the instance name on the command line, but when I run setup with INSTANCENAME=SHAREPOINT, setup runs *almost* to completion, then silently fails. The application logs just say that installation failed with no additional information. Am I on the right path here. I've done nothing but read articles and try various things out for the last day and a half, but I'm no closer now than I was when I got into this mess. I'm installing sql server 2000 sp3 on this machine now, because I've tried everything else I can think of, and I'm hoping that will give me some more options. If anyone missed my original post, here's the summary: 1) Sharepoint was working great 2) I accidentally uninstalled msde 3) I tried reinstalling sharepoint (choosing repair) 4) Access requests result in "configuration database not found) The database is still there - I just don't know how to get them connected. If I attempt to access the server through the sharepoint admin site, I get an error that "the virtual server referenced here is not in the configuration database" - but I don't know how to get it there, nor do I know if it's the same or different problem.

    - Is it only me? Frontpage and Sharepoint RPC POST docs - a mess I'm trying to figure out how to use the Frontpage and Sharepoint HTTP RPC extensions. I'm trying to do a POST to do some command like "list themes", but the documentation seems to be a mess and I can't figure it out. Some of the docs say to use _vti_bin/owssvr.dll, some of the docs say to use _vti_bin/_vti_aut/owssvr.dll. Some of the docs say to use "Cmd=method name", and some of them say to use "method=method name". In any case, my POST is returning "(404) not found", a very cryptic and un-useful message if ever I saw one. Does anybody have experience with this stuff? A useful URL pointer, some sample code, perhaps? thanks. Note the part you need to remove in my email if you reply. Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 3057

    - Can't connect to configuration database on reinstall I was pointed here from the sts group. I debated titling this post "I'm an idiot" - because I sure feel like one. I was removing some old software from a server today, and accidentally uninstalled msde (I meant to select the item above msde in add/remove programs - feel free to make fun of me now). At that point, I probably *should* have just reinstalled msde, but I didn't notice the separate installation directory on the cd (this is sts 2.0 on server 2003). I reinstalled sharepoint, but now when I attempt to connect to the server, I get a "can't connect to configuration database" error. If I launch the administration pages on the server, and attempt to access the configuration pages for this virtual server, the config page can't be found. I've verified that the application pool is set properly in the IIS configuration for this web site, and I've also verified that the database it *should* be connecting to still exists. I'm willing to try anything to get this server back up. It's frustrating, because I think it shouldn't be that difficult... If it will help at all, I have an unused copy of SQL Server 2000 enterprise that I could install if the tools included with SQL would help me out. Any ideas?

    - Using text formula in default value for a field Hello: I can't seem to figure out how to set up a text field so that the default value (for new records) is a concatenation of other fields in the same record. In this case, I have a single-line text field called "Full Name," and three other single-line text fields called "First Name," "Last Name" and "Honorific". According to the online help that comes up when I click the "Show more information" link on the Change Column page, I should be able to enter as a "Calculated (default) Value" a formula such as: =[Honorific]&" "&[First Name]&" "&[Last Name] and have WSS enter "Dr. Victor Zhivago" in the Full Name field after I type in "Dr.", "Victor", and "Zhivago" in the other fields. But in fact, when I enter that formula, WSS returns the error: The formula contains reference(s) to field(s). Well, duh. I encounter similar problems when trying to use date formulas to create calculated default values. So WSS seems to evaluate functions involving other fields correctly if the target field is of type "Calculated Value" but it does not do so to create a default value for a target field that can be edited. Or am I missing something? Editing the properties of the list in Frontpage2003 doesn't work either. Am I missing something? Any suggestions? TIA, Wayt Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 3028

    - Info - the remit of this newsgroup [Given the occasional question here that is not covered by the remit of this newsgroup, it seems important to spell it out occasionally. This is the first attempt.]. This is the newsgroup for standalone Windows SharePoint Services (WSS). That's its main function. The products SharePoint Portal Server (SPS) 2003; Project Server 2003 and Small Business Server (SBS) 2003 (both editions) also include a WSS "element". (In the case of SPS 2003 this WSS element is a lower layer of the product. In the case of both Project Server 2003 and SBS 2003 this is an implementation of the WSS product itself which is installed in addition to the other product(s) in the package.) As most of the functionality of WSS is common between all four products mentioned above, it is sensible that discussion on those common functions take place here to avoid having parallel threads happening over several newsgroups. The "common" functions are those functions that are supplied with standalone WSS. Note - "Discussion on those *common* functions!" ONLY. What should not be discussed here are matters that require that particular product (SPS 2003; Project Server 2003; SBS 2003) to be present as these then do not fall under the "common functions" banner. These include for all three products *installation questions* and - for SPS 2003: web parts that are only supplied with SPS 2003 and not with standalone WSS; anything to do with the top layer such as My Site; Areas etc. for Project Server 2003: any special web parts supplied only with Project Server 2003; and special list types provided in the Project Server 2003 implementation of WSS. for SBS 2003: any special web parts supplied only with SBS 2003 (possibly there are none); and special list types provided in the SBS 2003 implementation of WSS (such as the Fax Library). Please try to follow the above guidelines when deciding whether to post to this newsgroup or whether it is best to post to the Product's own newsgroup. Please do not multi-post - people running standalone WSS do not want "their" newsgroup filled with threads that have no relevance to standalone WSS.

Note that some column types like numbers and currency use the same data type." Is this a problem in SPS 2003? Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 2961

    - Connecting a Web Part in the Display Form I'm looking to add a web part to my list display form (dispform.aspx) that shows related records in another list. The related records are designated using a lookup field. When I add the part to the page however, it doesn't seem to enable me to add a connection to the existing display form fields. Is there any way of getting this scenario to work? It would make for a fantastic master/detail view. Thanks! Colin Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 2960

    - Problems deleting/adding users I have several users that I deleted from my wss site.These users were deleted from WSS and AD. I now need to re-add them. When I add the users thru the add users wizard - it does not show the checkbox option that wss is sending the user a password, it does send the email saying you have been added. When I try to change the users pwd in WSS - it says "user does not exist" I see the users listed under "manage users". I have also tried to manually add the users to AD, still no luck. New users, users who have never been invited to the site, receive the email with pwd and user name and can log in fine. They are also added to the ad with no problem. Has anyone else ran into this? Any feed back or suggestions greatly appreciated. Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 2946

    - fax viewer I'm having a problem viewing incomeing faxes. Faxes are being stored ok in the incoming faxes library. If I use internet explorer from the server then clicking on the fax brings up an image ok. However... When I try to do the same from my XP workstation I just get a picture symbol but no image. I have no idea what setting I have changed to give this behaviour. Any ideas. Graham Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 2944

    - Printing problem with DispForm.aspx after FP 2003 amendment I've discovered what seems to be a printing problem with amendments made to DispForm.aspx in FP 2003. Just as I used to do in STS v1.0, I amended the DispForm.aspx file in FP 2003 so that the main (multirow) text field of this custom form was (coloured; larger; and) filling just as wide a part of the screen before wrapping that would allow the text to be printed without any letters/words being dropped. In STS v1.0 this worked fine. In WSS printing this text (in IE 6.0) ignored my pre-made line endings and thus missed a couple of words per line. I then went back and made the entire screen narrower (rather than just the fields with data) including moving the "Back to the team site" text to the left. I then refreshed and printed again. On screen, the WSS page is narrower; but the printout of the page has exactly the same number of characters printed (and the same number of characters missing) as with the standard screen size and just field length adjustments. ------------ Now when the page has not been amended in FP 2003 and the screen page is far too wide to be printed in A4 as is, wordwrap comes into play and the screen is printed just fine (with even some white space at the right). Odd, very odd .... Mike Walsh, Helsinki, Finland WSS FAQ at wss.collutions.com Please post questions to the newsgroup only. Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 2942

    - Import Spreadsheet (Excel) Hello, I am using WSS v2 on Windows 2003 Server. When I try to create a Custom Lists via Import Spreadsheet I get an error message "Can not connect to the server at this time. Your list has not been published". I am on a LAN no firewalls and the sharepoint server is on the same subnet. The site is published on port 80. Has anyone ever run into this? I am running excel 2003. When Excel connects to Sharepoint is it trying to connect to the database directly? Can anyone shed some light on how this feature works? Thanks, Damian Tag: SharePoint + Hummingbird dm5.1 Tag: 2937

    - V2: Search in WSS Issues It seems to me that the search in WSS is not a freetext search.

Is there an add-in to keep document checkin/out metadata and versioning in

I've never heard Hummingbird mentioned anywhere in connection with Windows
SharePoint Services, which as you posted in this newsgroup is I presume the
product you mean when you write "SharePoint" . So I would say that there
isn't any such sync possibility with WSS.

If you meant with SharePoint Portal Server then I suggest you ask at
microsoft.public.sharepoint.portalserver.
