    - WSS Install on IIS 6 I have just installed WSS on my company Win2003 server that is running IIS 6. WSS will be used for internal use (not public internet). Currently, users need to enter http://servername in the browser to get to the site. Is it possible to change the default url to http://servername/sharepoint ? Before installing WSS, I had several web pages being hosted on the root of the IIS server and would like to keep setup that way. Many thanks. -Shrader Tag: searching lookup fields Tag: 40394

    - view issues closed within week Hello, I wonder if this is possible. I have a field in my issues list that displays the date an issue was closed. I would like to create a view that shows all issues closed within the last week. Is this possible within Sharepoint? Can you point me in the right direction? I am not having luck with using the [Today] function properly in a calculated field. I added a blank field called Today, so that I could use the [Today] function. but [Today] is showing up as 12/30/1899. I've verified that the server dates are indeed current, so that is not the problem. Thanks Tag: searching lookup fields Tag: 40393

    - Restricting email alerting to files only not whole doc libraries Is there a way to restrict email alerts so users an only set up alerts on individual files/items, instead of on an entire document library? We are using Sharepoint for client portals. Our document libraries have many files in them that are updated monthly or quarterly. We do not want our clients to get bombarded with email alerts each month, when the whole set of documents gets updated. We'd like to prevent them from signing up for alerts on an entire document libary but would like them to be able to sign up for alerts on a few individual documents.

    - Veritas Replicator for WSS Hot-Standby Has anyone set up a hot standby solution for WSS. Instead of using Log shipping in whic you have set the database in Read-write mode, we are looking for a way to implement a Read/Write and Read/Write if the Primary WSS Farm goes down. We are looing into Veritas Replicator, but that can't replicate because SQL has the files open on the target servers. Has anyone worked with this type of scenario before?

    - Best place to store passwords? Hi, I am creating an event handler for sharepoint document libraries and am seeking some advice as to where is the best place to save the username and password for the impersonated user? I looked at the web.config file for the virtual server but did not see an AppSettings section. Should I store them in the registry? Should I create a separate config file, if so where do you put that file? Any thoughts or samples are welcome. Thanks in advance, Jeff Richardson Tag: searching lookup fields Tag: 40373

    - Sharepoint search function I'm a little confused about this freetext statement. i have a sharepoint site that was modified a little bit and now, the search fucntion will only display results for items that are spelt correctly. I notice in the fetchlistresults (stored procedure) that some statements contain "containstable" but even after changing this to "freetexttable", it still does not work? How is this possible?

    - How to setup SPS as a website on IIS 6 I'm very new to SPS and I have installed it on a Windows 2003 member server for a customer. The customer wants access to it from outside of the network. I have setup SSL in IIS for the Sharepoint Central Administration website, however I have noticed that this is not where the pages are stored that the customer is creating. I've read the documentation and can not find anything that tells me how to publish my sharepoint services pages that have been created to IIS so I can enable SSL on them and allow access externally (like an extranet). I know how to setup SSL on a website and I AM NOT USING ISA:) I know how to setup Sharepoint services, but I'm missing the middle piece of getting the sharepoint services webpages over to IIS so I can grant access to them externally. THis is probably something very simple but I'm not very familiar with IIS as I don't work with it that much. Any help would be appreciated. I would also be glad to read how to do this if there is documetnation out there on it, so point me in that direction if you know where the documentation is, that does not assume you are using ISA.

Now the problem I am running into is when users trying to go to the SharePoint site and attempt to edit an Office document, the drop down to "Edit in Microsoft "app"" is not available. This is happening to workstations that had an in place upgrade of Office from 2000 to 2003. But if the workstation is reimaged and gets a full install of Office 2003 , it works fine.

    - File override in document libraries Is there a way to prevent users from overriding files that already exist in a document library? I want my users to be able to upload new files to a document library but, if the library already contains a file with that name, I do not want the users to be able to override (delete) them. The default behaviour (with versioning turned off) of WSS is to override the existing file without any warning. This is a very simple request (it exists in any file system) and I'm surprised that it is not implemented by default in WSS. Is there any way to prevent this behaviour or at least to make WSS generate a warning message asking if the user wants to override the file ? Any help would be much appreciated.

    - Calendar view events not displayed issue Hi We are seeing the issue described below in a previous post. Does anyone know if this has been fixed and if so how? Apparently is was reported to MS as a bug. Thanks Mike "I have two calendar lists that are being displayed in calendar view on a Web Part Page. Both calendars are populated with several events. When the Web Part Page is loaded, the calendar view defaults to the current month. For example, the current date is March 3, 2005, so both calendar views default to display the month of March. When I click the "<" and ">" on one of the calendar view, the page refreshes to load a new month for both calendars views. For example, with the above case, if I click "<", the month of Februray will load. If I click ">", the month of April will load. Now here is the weird part. When the page reloads to display a new month, events that should appear do not show up at all for ONE of the calendar views. In other words, If "February" is being viewed, one of the calendar views will be empty, even though I know events have been entered for the month of February. The other calendar view works as intended... with its events being displayed when the month changes. When I remove the calendar that is working as intended from the Web Part page, the calendar with the event rendering problem is able to display all events as intended, regardless of what month is shown. When I re-add the calendar that was removed earlier, the calendar view that was fixed just a second ago exhibits the event rendering problems again. When I view these calendar views on their own page (for eg. http://server/sites/SiteName/Lists/Calendar/Calendar.aspx), both calendar views display all events as intended regardless of which month is being displayed. When both calendar web parts are displayed on the same Web Part page, but are not in calendar view, they both display events as intended. Any ideas on what is happening here? This looks like a SharePoint bug." Tag: searching lookup fields Tag: 40308

    - Custom Paging in DataView web part connected to Stored procedure. Hi. I have the following scenario in sharepoint development. I need some help in resolving the issue. Scenario : There is a filter control(set of drop downs and textboxs . Ex "FirstName" "Equals" "Sam") implemented in form web part. These drop downs are directly bound to parameters of the stored procedure of dataview webpart using the webpart connection. I want to enable the custom Paging on the DataView webpart connected to the stored procedure. The Paging technique is implemented in the stored procedure. one additional parameter is passed to the stored procedure as Location="Form(__EVENTARGUMENT)" Because when the user clicks on Next or Start button from DVWP, the event is fired and the below value is received as parameter to the SP. Here RowLimit is additional data added by me for the click of Next in DVWP. "dvt_firstrow={4};StartPosition={};RowLimit={3}". the dvt_firstrow and RowLimit is used in the stored procedure to implement the paging. In ideal condition I am able to navigate from one page to another. There are two issues involved in this method. 1. After navigating to second page if we change the filter condition and click on Find, same old row numbers are displayed below the data grid in DVWP. The row number does not get reset. 2. Is it possible to find which is the last page in this method. I am unable to distinguish the last or intermediate page as the paging is implemented in stored procedure. Can I pass any out parameter from the stored procedure to the xslt variables declared within the DVWP? Thanks in Advance Sunil Tag: searching lookup fields Tag: 40304

    - Setting user unique default view in same list We have a WSS list that has a number of views. Basically, it lists our companies job tasks, assigned to individual users, with a specific field "Assigned to" being a lookup against the WSS site members. The default view on the list is filtered to show jobs assigned to the user logged in i.e. 'Assigned to [me]'. We have a number of rooms where the tasks are shared between the occupants of the room. I have set up views for the individual rooms, basically filtering the tasks by the rooms occupant i.e. if Room A has User1 and User2 in it, the filter is something like Show 'Assigned to [User1] OR Assigned to [User2]' etc. What I now would like to do is have a different default view for each room. I.e. User1 and User2 are in RoomA, User3 and User4 are in RoomB, Users 1 and 2 need only to see those tasks assigned to any user in Room A, and Users 3 and 4 need only to see those tasks assigned to any user in Room B - User1 and User2 have RoomA as their Default View, User3 and User4 have RoomB as their Default View.

    - strange problem with calculated field in issues list Hello, Happy New Years! I have an issues list where I've created a calculated field called 'Close Date'. Here is the formula I created for it: =IF(AND(Status="Closed",CloseDateOG=""),Modified,IF(AND(Status="Closed",CloseDateOG<>""),CloseDateOG,"")) The way it works is, if a user closes an issue by setting the 'Status' field to 'Closed', the 'Close Date' field is filled in with the 'Modified' date. 'CloseDateOG' is text field where users used to be allowed to manually fill in the 'Close Date' which led to dishonest closed dates, which is why I changed it. The problem I have is unpredictable. Today I looked at the list and the 'Close Date' field was showing values of '12/30/1899'. When I looked at the actual formula of the field it was set to '=12/25/2005'.

It also has item-level permissions set for "Only their Own" for both read and edit access, and users are only allowed to respond once. However, SOME users (its sporadic) can respond more than once (these are readers with anonymous access only), and even though I have item-level security set for only their own, they can see the other responses. These users have read access only. Why does it seem to work correctly sometimes, and not others? Do I have something setup in the permissions wrong? I appreciate any help you can give on this topic!

    - Web Discussion alerts no longer working for htm web pages We upgraded to WSS 2.0 and can no longer subscribe to htm pages (or site folders). It appears we can only "subscribe" to documents and SharePoint specific web pages (lists, discussion boards...). While the documentation says alerts didn't change the subscription feature much, this appears to be far from actuality. Prior to upgrading to WSS v2.0, we were using the subscription feature for review htm pages (which were part of a help file). We were able to subscribe to the overall folder that held the very large help file and get notified when any discussion were added on any topic. This was an extermely useful way to review help files. Previously the help would be converted to word docs that were hundreds of pages long (each topic being a page or more). Not something we want to regress back to. We can still do web discussions on this content, but we can't tell what recently changed. The "manage web discussions" option can show you what has discussions within a given folder (so we know what help topics have discussions), but we can't tell which are recent. Subscriptions allowed us to know exactly what recently changed. Questions: Is there anyway to get alerts to work the way subscriptions used to for web discussions? Specifically, is there some way to be alerted when discussions are added/changed for a location like "http://sharepointserver_site/Online_SDKs/ProductName_SDK_1-8/", which contains pages like: http://sharepointserver_site/Online_SDKs/ProductName_SDK_1-8/About_this_SDK.htm; http://sharepointserver_site/Online_SDKs/ProductName_SDK_1-8/How_activate.htm ; http://sharepointserver_site/Online_SDKs/ProductName_SDK_1-8/Activation_types.htm If there isn't a way to do this anymore, then is there some way to do a web discussion on a chm file (which we have been unable to do, which is why we went with the htm method discribed above)? Failing the ability to do the above options, is there any other way to get this to work and still use Sharepoint (per web discussion help, the subscription method would still work if we did not use Sharepoint)? Thanks for any help! The method described above for reviewing help documents was just about to be adopted by most of the software divisions in our company. The group I am in had been using the above method for well over a year. We were finally getting this to become the company standard methodology when it broke with the upgrade...

    - Sharepoint migration question I am trying to migrate sharepoint from one server to another, as we want to use the new server exclusively for sharepoint. The problem is that when I run the backup.fwp file on the new server through smigrate.exe it doesn't do anything except open and then close a few seconds later. However, if I run it on the older server it works fine. I am thinking this is because the new server does not have frontpage installed on it, and the .fwp on the backup file is a frontpage extension.

    - Display Parent Folder when using "Show all documents without folders" option I created a new view for my document library which shows all documents without folder. But is it still possible to display a column which would let the users know the parent folder (or path) of each document ? Thanks in advance, Julich Tag: searching lookup fields Tag: 40273

    - Metadata wiped out in web properties of Office documents The deleted metadata probably cannot be retrived so this is more of a warning. I had a column with a drop-drown list modified in the "Modify Settings and Columns>Choice>Drop-down" manner. After assigning this metadata in this way for about 1200 documents, it was determined to change the way the drop-down was populated to Lookup method referring to a Sharepoint list which maintained the contents of the list. This was done to control the ability of users needing to modify only one of the metadata columns but not all of them. Unfortunately, when I went to change the metadata type to Lookup instead of Choice, Lookup was no longer in the list. So I deleted the Choice list and created a new column using the Look-up method. It not only blanked out the metadata in that column but also in the Web Properties of each document in the library; causing me to have to manually re-enter the metadata in that column for over 1200 documents. I could understand if the metadata in the view for that library went blank but I never expected it to wipe clean the metadata stored in the web properties of each document in the library.

    - Estranged "Enter Network Password" Dialog box WSS 2.0 Site 2 yrs running and never had this problem before. One user out of around 120 receives the "Enter Network Password" dialog box when accessing a nonrestricted document library on the current site. Stranger is that the user can click cancel on the dialog box and proceed without filling in any information. Active Directory seems OK and she does not get the dialog on any of the sub-sites. Any ideas? Thanks Jack Tag: searching lookup fields Tag: 40271

    - WSS Display Folder/File Content I have a question/problem. First, I tried using the Page Viewer Web Part to display folder content for a network folder, and it worked, but it only stayed in the Web Part's frame for XP clients...on a Windows 2000 machine if I double-clicked one of the folders within that Page Viewer Web Part, it would then take over the whole web page, turning it into a Windows Explorer view. So then, I decided I'd try to just manually throw in the links to documents/folders on the default page for a site instead of using a web part...which is fine, but if there is something new added to the folder I wouldn't know unless I checked for new content, and then I'd have to add that to the site. This brought me to looking for a script that displayed the file/folder contents of a folder on the network so that if anything is added, it will automatically appear on the links. I've found a few ASP scripts that claim to do this, but when I try to paste them into the code of the default.aspx pages, nothing appears in the browser as far as the script goes (as if it doesn't run). Can anybody help me out on how to do this, or if there is a better solution, to enlighten me? Tag: searching lookup fields Tag: 40269
