Best Practise: Document Library with Workflow
Hi,
this is my first Sharepoint Workflow-Project so Id like to have some
tipps on howto implement the following szenario best:
A user is creating a document. (Status to Requested) This document has
to be approved by his HOD (status to Approved). There are several HOD
so the user who creates the document should be able to choose his
responsible HOD. After this Approval is made the document goes to IT.
There the form will be in Work (Status to Implementation). When this
is done the Status should be set to "Implemented" (by Hand) and a
email should be sent to the user.
Can you pls tell me in some steps how to implement this solution best?
I'm using WSS3 and Sharepoint Designer 2007.

Sharepoint dropdownlist ordering
Hi,
I have a dropdownlist in a list, which is populated by a sharepoint
child list. How can I change the ordering of the fields as it appears
in the main list? I have changed the ordering in the child list, but
the dropdownlist in the main list always seems to be in alphabetical
order.
Hope this makes sense. I'm using MOSS 2007.
Thanks in advance! :) Tag: Map drive to ftp Tag: 67830
WSS 3.0 Workflow doesn't automatically start
Made a simple workflow that I want to fire when a user emails the Team
Discussion list. I have the workflow set to create a task. If I manually
launch it, it works. But it does automatically do it. I have both manual

Designer. Am I missing something?

Passing Multi Value Parameters to a SSRS Report
Hi,
I'm trying to figure out the best way to pass multi value parameters
to an SSRS report. I've got WSS 3.0 set up with SSRS Integration. I
was using the built in Report Viewer Web Part, and having users select
parameter values in the parameter pane, but this seems to load
somewhat slowly, and the drop down used to select the values doesn't
provide enough screen space for the user to see the full text values
of their selections. As a result, I'm looking at trying to build a
web part to pass these parameters to the report. In testing, I've
played around with the RegionFilterWebPart example that Microsoft
provides on the MSDN site, but am having trouble getting that to
actually work (plus, according to what I've read, I can't pass multi
value parameters out of that web part). Does anyone have any ideas
for how I can do this?

database contains products, spare parts, descriptions, etc.
This databased is not indexed by the WSS search service. How do I set it up

Sharepoint Search Service "stopping"
I am having issues with the search service in WSS3 and keeping it running.
The search service is currently in a "stopping" state and never actually
stops. Rebooting the server takes care of the error for a while, but the
service will stop functioning again the next day. Looking through the event
logs the Timer service is also throwing a lot of errors related to the

Locating .Net apps inside the Sharepoint IIS virtual server
We have just started running WSS3.0 for our Intranet (http://intranet).
We have several reports written with .NET (aspx pages) that are located on a
different IIS server
We need to have the URL's for the aspx pages to be http://intranet/reports
These pages are not going to be elements within Sharepoint, we just want to
use the Sharepoint server as a web server hosting the aspx files. So far we
cannot get it to work because the webconfig of the Sharepoint server takes
precedence and the aspx pages needs different settings.
How do we get IIS/Sharepoint to exclude a folder? WSS 2.0 had a method to
exclude a folder/path. WSS 3.0 does not have the same

column settings
In base columns we have a column titled start date. This evidently
feeds most lists/calendars. The box that said "update all list columns
based on this site column" was checked "yes". Then someone unchecked
that box. Now it is not available in any list/calendar and the only
way I can get it to come back is to customize the new, edit and

SharePoint Audit Data Table (dbo.AuditData)
We have a heavy used site that has all auditing enabled (Site Actions, Site
Settings, Modify All Site Settings, Site Collection Audit Settings, All items
checked under Events to audit)
This has caused the table dbo.AuditData in our WSS_WebApp_Content1 database
to become very large. Currently is has 135,614,755 records and is 33.8 GB in
size!
I have seen other posts where info on this table has been requested, but
nobody is responding. Some users thought that items were deleted out of it
after 30 days, this is nottrue. We have items in it dating back more than 6
months.
Here are my main questions:
- Is there any risk to moving this data out of this table into an archival
database?
- If we uncheck events to audit, will it automatically remove the space?
- Is there a way to automatically clear it after X days (without writing SQL
jobs)?
- How does this affect performance? Tag: Map drive to ftp Tag: 67787

moving document libraries from WSS 2.0 to MOSS 2007: how?
Hi,
I have been tasked with creating a MOSS 2007 site that centralizes
department information that is now scattered on file shares, plain old
HTML pages, and some WSS 2.0 sites. The WSS 2.0 sites run on a
different web server, but it is in the same domain.
There are some document libraries on the old WSS sites (but not all of
them) that I would like to "migrate" to the MOSS site. It is not
feasible to download all individual documents and upload them again to
the new site. First because of the large number, and second because I
need to keep the user and modification date intact. If I just upload,
they will all be on my name on today.
So how can I achieve this goal? Also, I am not an administrator on
either of the WSS/MOSS servers, I am just the "owner" of a MOSS site.
TIA,

Word 2007 Won't directly open documents from Sharepoint
A few of my users (consultants) are using Office 2007. When they click on a
document in my sharepoint document library the document will not open.
Instead Word opens and just sits there.
However if they do "download a copy" they can open the document just fine
from their own computer.
It's not a permissions issue since they have complete access to the site and
can upload/download documents just fine.

bug with custom list from site collection template
Hi.
I have a problem. Then I create a site collection from template I
can't make my custom list web part to appear in my favourite view.
Here is my sequence:
1. Create custom list
2. Add some columns.
3. Make a custom view with some number of columns.
4. Add a custom list web part on home page.
5. Change custom list web part and select my custom view.
6. Save site collection as a template.
7. Create site collection from template.
And I see my custom list, but with only one column - "Name". It is not
the view that is in the template.
Yes. The custom view exists and I can change it manually on every site
I create, but it is very strange behavior for Sharepoint.
What's the trick? Tag: Map drive to ftp Tag: 67711
Authentication: the Torture Never Stops
I'm really not having any luck designing authentication for my sharepoint
site: we have a wss 3.0 site for our intranet and then subsites for each of
our customers to log into and view team disscussions and documents. The goal
is for internal users to be able to open the intranet site using domain
credentials and without needing to give a username and password. On the
outside I would like customers to be able to come in and just give username
and password. Additionally when opening documents I don't want any
authentication dialog boxes to come up.
After alot of work, the internal portion is working - employees can open IE
and get into their resources without re-entering a username and password.
They cannot get where they don't belong.
However, when customers try to login remotely (http over the inet) they are
being required to give their username in a <domain name>\<username> format.
Security is set up:
IIS - Integrated Windows and Digest Authentication.
Sharepoint through Site Admin - IIS has Integrated Windows with NTLM and
Type is Windows.
IE trusts the site(s).
MVP Todd Klindt earlier suggested I use Basic Authentication, but I had a
problem with opening documents (security prompt) which KB 871155 had me
uncheck Basic in sharepoint Central Admin. Also, it's clear text and I
didn't really want to use SSL, so I chose Digest Authentication which I
understood to be kind of the same but secure.
Just to make things more fun the whole shooting match has already been
pushed into production, so I am limited as to how much boat rocking I can
do...
Thanks for plowing through all that! Tag: Map drive to ftp Tag: 67706

Issues with directory management services after installing
After installing the July Infrastructure Updates for MOSS, our server
has been having issues with the Directory Management Service.
We originally set up Incoming E-Mail on the MOSS server using the
SharePoint Directory Management Service for creating groups in Active
Directory. This has been working perfectly in conjunction with our
Exchange 2007 server and we've been managing group memberships through
MOSS web interface.
Unfortunately it seems the WSS Infrastructure Update has broken this
functionality. Now when approving the creation of Distribution
Groups, the group itself is created and the email address is attached,
however the users are never added to the group in Active Directory.
Adding a user to the SharePoint Group results in the following error
when the Directory Service tries to make the change in Active
Directory (see below for a log file extract) :
The Directory Management Service has reported an error which is not
recognized by Windows SharePoint Services.
No other changes have been made to the system, or to the permissions
or structure of Active Directory.
I have been able to recreate this scenario in the same network
environment using a development VM - creating Distribution Groups
works fine until the WSS Infrastructure Update is loaded.
Anyone else experienced this problem?

where one would expect it and not one with the same content as when you view
the source.
Where is this file located?
Thanks,

logon screen constantly popping
I have a sharepoint server using Digest Authentication for Windows Servers.
I am using this so that users do not have to enter their username in a
<domain.name>\<username> format and it is more secure than basic
authentication. The goal is to have people on the LAN logged in using domain
accounts to automatically login when they try to open sharepoint. Failing
that, if they could just login once.
However, we are constantly getting login screens. In IIS I've increased the
Connection time-outs to 65000 seconds and http keep alives are enabled. I
can't find any other settings - how can I get this to work right? Tag: Map drive to ftp Tag: 67674
New solution for Microsoft SharePoint usage statistic and reporting:
MAPILab Statistics for SharePoint is a simple and effective tool for
collecting and analyzing data about usage of site collections of the
SharePoint product group.
With the help of the solution's reports you will be able get detailed
information about dynamics and intensity of visiting site pages,
length of user visits on different sites, depth of visits, information
about operating systems and browsers utilized by users, popularity of
site pages, start and end of visits on pages and visit sources,
intensity of queries by day, data about successful and no-result
queries and other essential information.
Due to integration with Active Directory, any report may be generated
just for users of a concrete domain, for organizational unit or even
for specific user. For example, it is possible to evaluate employee`s
involvement in projects according to dynamics of user`s visits and
queries to the search system.
The current version of the program has over 20 reports which enable
you to get detailed information about portals based on Microsoft
SharePoint.
MAPILab Statistics for SharePoint is FREE for commercial and non-
commercial use.

Companyweb Helpdesk from SBS 2003 to Windows 2003 Standard
We had a massive failure of our production 2003 Small Business Server
and I decided to change out infrastructure to multiple Windows 2003
domain controllers for greater resiliance and redundancy.
The problem I have is that I do not know how to get the helpdesk we
had on Companyweb on the old SBS server onto our Sharepoint
installation on our new Windows 2003 server. We have hundreds of calls
logged and no way of accessing them.
All the files are iintact on the old hard drive ie inetpub directory
etc.
Does anyone know how I can create the same Helpdesk companyweb on my
new server and merge the old data?
Any help is greatly appreciated - I am nearing the end of my tether.

Hidden Files in SharePoint Folder
Hi,
I have been having a problem with a specific folder on my SharePoint
server. People who have only read access to the folder cannot see any
files in that folder but they can see the general folder structure.
As soon as I add them as a user with read/write access they can see
the files in the folder. Has anyone had a similar issue? and how
would i go about resolving it?
Thanks,
Blair Tag: Map drive to ftp Tag: 67661
