Most of us are used to working with Sharepoint using Office 2007 and we are all quite familiar with it by now, but it is fairly obvious that PDF documents have been used for many years and we all love using them. It is therefore inevitable that we will...

This is a very annoying problem that completely ruins the user experience of Office 2007 and Sharepoint. The worst part of the problem is that it only occurs on Vista and works perfectly on Windows XP. Makes me sometimes wonder why I bothered to upgrade...

A lot of .NET developers still do not see the point behind using WSS 3.0 or MOSS 2007 as a development platform. I have therefore decided to write this blog to explain the benefits from the OS upwards to make it easier to understand. I do not claim that...

The concept of workflow is not a new one and many commercial products on the market have been offering solutions for years, but at a very high cost. As most of you know by now, Microsoft was started working on this problem since the creation of the .NET...

It has been a long 3 months, but we are finally done. The new Victoria & Alfred Waterfront web site has been redesigned with a fresh look and feel and has also been built on MOSS 2007. We have been in beta testing for a couple of weeks and we asked...

Recently I have been doing a lot of Content Deployment between various Sharepoint servers and in the near future I will write a whole series of blogs on how to do this. In a build up to those blogs, I have decided to start explaining how some of the less...

I am always on the lookout for new material and e-books on my favourite topics. Sometimes I am lucky and some of my friends and colleague's have some e-books and additional training material and them we swap. You can go and search on "Google"...

This must be one of the most annoying problems that I have faced for quite some time and the worst part is that there is no fix as yet. The best that I could do is find some type of "work around" solution that will have to suffice until Microsoft...

At some point or another you will have to try and install either WSS 3.0 or MOSS 2007 on a Windows 2008 server. This is when things start getting interesting due to the fact that things do not quite work the same way as they did before. I recently had...

As most of you are already aware, Microsoft places a huge amount of emphasis on certification. Not only does this guarantee that the certified person knows what they are doing, but it makes it easier for companies to employee people as there is some sort...

For many years Microsoft had their focus on ILT (Instructor Led Courses) and it has been very successful for them. Due to the explosion of the Internet and the lack of time that most IT professionals experience these days, it has become very difficult...

During a Sharepoint deployment it becomes critical to train the end-user on how to use Sharepoint effectively. Quite often this phase of a project is ignored with disastrous results when the system goes live due to user resistance of the new technology...

In my never ending research to understand Sharepoint better and increase my knowledge of the product, I came across a Microsoft web site that has free e-books available for download in MS Word format. Some of you might already know about it, but I am...

In my daily work I come across many customers that have implemented MOSS themselves and are having problems in one form or another. Some sites are better than others, but they all seem to have one thing in common. None of them have implemented "Search"...

There are quite a number of databases generated during a Sharepoint install and depending on the "Farm" configuration there might be more or less. A lot of SQL DBA's get quite annoyed when all these databases suddenly appear in their system...

One of the main problems that users have with Sharepoint is the ability to synchronize their documents on Sharepoint with offline copies on their PC's. There are a number of ways in which to solve this problem ranging from Outlook 2007 to Groove 2007...

One of the most frustrating things in Sharepoint for developers or even administrators, is implementing a new change and then nothing seems to happen. This is caused by the fact that Sharepoint implements almost all changes as jobs that run behind the...

Just trying to read the title of this article is quite a mouth full, so I will start by explaining where this idea came from and why I am not using the acronyms as most IT people do. I have just recently moved from Johannesburg to Cape Town and joined...

Some time ago I had the bright idea of moving the SQL databases for Sharepoint. I was running a VPC with only one virtual drive and started running out of disk space. So I decided to create another virtual drive, detach the SQL databases from SQL Server...

I am currently busy re-designed a web site for a company using the "Publishing Feature" in Sharepoint that will be hosted on the Internet. This process is going to keep me busy for a couple of months and I am learning a lot about publishing...

I received some interesting comments on a blog I wrote sometime ago about "Access Denied on a Sharepoint Site". The comments ultimately culminated in a fix based on adding user accounts to the "Web Application Policy" using the Sharepoint...

Of the two "install and configure" exams for Sharepoint, this is probably the more difficult of the two depending on your IT background and experience. The "MOSS" exam:07-630 focuses more on the product itself and how to install, configure...

A lot of people have been emailing me about exam tips on passing the MOSS 2007 exam. Even though this information is freely available on the Internet, it seems that people struggling to find this information. I have therefore decided to find the relevant...

A number of companies have existing Intranet sites or even line of business applications that are web based. The complication comes in when they decide to move everything to a Sharepoint based intranet site and all the users are dependant on the previously...
