For those new to message boards please try to follow a few simple rules when posting your question.- Choose the correct forum for your message. Posting a VB.NET question in the C++ forum will end in tears.
- Be specific! Don't ask "can someone send me the code to create an application that does 'X'. Pinpoint exactly what it is you need help with.
- Keep the subject line brief, but descriptive. eg "File Serialization problem"
- Keep the question as brief as possible. If you have to include code, include the smallest snippet of code you can.
- Be careful when including code that you haven't made a typo. Typing mistakes can become the focal point instead of the actual question you asked.
- Do not remove or empty a message if others have replied. Keep the thread intact and available for others to search and read. If your problem was answered then edit your message and add "[Solved]" to the subject line of the original post, and cast an approval vote to the one or several answers that really helped you.
- If you are posting source code with your question, place it inside <pre></pre> tags. We advise you also check the "Encode "<" (and other HTML) characters when pasting" checkbox before pasting anything inside the PRE block, and make sure "Use HTML in this post" check box is checked.
- Be courteous and DON'T SHOUT. Everyone here helps because they enjoy helping others, not because it's their job.
- Please do not post links to your question into an unrelated forum such as the lounge. It will be deleted. Likewise, do not post the same question in more than one forum.
- Do not be abusive, offensive, inappropriate or harass anyone on the boards. Doing so will get you kicked off and banned. Play nice.
- If you have a school or university assignment, assume that your teacher or lecturer is also reading these forums.
- No advertising or soliciting.
- We reserve the right to move your posts to a more appropriate forum or to delete anything deemed inappropriate or illegal.

hi guys,
I have a document library where I have the Document ID feature enabled and I get the ID's generated as well. Now the problem is that I wanna show the document ID as a column in the document library and I can't figure how to do that. Seems pretty simple on the face though. Would appreciate any helps or queues please!
Thanks in Advance.

I am really going crazy here  , created a workflow in Sharepoint (2007) designer which works fine when adding a static email address (send when element change) but when i add a AD lookup (Email Service Request:Username) it only works if i run it manually, from sharepoint front end!
When i create the same workflow with (Email Service Request:Domain\admin) it works fine, but when i use the above code it only works when i manually start it, from front end. Is there a rights issue?
Found this article but i dont know if it applies to me, though i have some of the same errors especially the thing about logging in as system account, which i dint think much of before this.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947284/da
But what rights should the new account have????? or is the error something else?
System info: SB2008 fully updated, running WSS 3
Can anyone help with this ???

Have you reviewed the ULS logs? Are you using the same account in both places to execute the workflow? It does sound as though it is a permissions issue but there is very little information on which to comment.

Thank you very much for reply 
When i develop the workflow i use my system admin account, dont no what else i need!
Found this in the log files,
Unexpected Declarative workflows cannot automatically start if the triggering action was performed by System Account. Canceling workflow auto-start. List Id: 2017db47-c26a-423b-ad04-70e918d0fc6f, Item Id: 108, Workflow Association Id: a28126ee-baf4-41aa-8354-6c91ac2553a1

Sadly i did not install it when it was launched! i dont know why my account is system account where can i change it?
I tried to log in using another account and changed a list element, this made the workflow run perfectly so you where wright when you said it was a problem with the accounts, strange problem !! but thanks for pointing me in the right direction 
So now 2 questions remain, how can i remove me being system account and what kind of user should i use when using sharepoint designer?
|
|
|
|
|
|

Yes everything works fine now, for other people having same issue here is what i did; apparently system account can not run Workflows which means if your account is a system account it will not be able to initiate a workflow! This also applies when creating workflows in Sharepoint designer, which will run when email is received.
This means you have to create user for example SPworkflow and make this a site collection admin:
Site Settings > Permissions > Site Collection Administrators
Then log in to Sharepoint designer again and save the workflows using this account!!!!

I want to upload an website created in asp.net on sharepoint.
Is it possible to upload the site created in asp.net directly on the sharepoint server( or a link from a virtual server is to be provided) . I have been suggested to upload the existing as a sanbox solution. But I want to avoid the overhead to created a sandbox solution.
|
|

Although SharePoint is based on ASP.NET technology you don't simply upload an ASP.NET application to it. SharePoint is much more involved and you should spend some time learning it.
A sandboxed solution has no relevance that I see here. What overhead are you trying to avoid? Actually creating a SharePoint solution?
To develop properly you would need to evaluate your application to determine if the functionality can be provided via webparts, visual or traditional, or as application pages. Using the latter you would convert each page to use SharePoint artifacts, such as masterpage. Then you would create a solution package to test and deploy

The issue is that, I have developed an ASP.NET website which is fully functionally.
The company wants a sharepoint as well and want to include the asp.net website in the sharepoint.
The sharepoint department asked to make use of sandbox solution.
I feel that the site should be hosted on some other server. Could a link (something like iframe) will enable one to browse the site in a particular sharepoint page itself?
What is your take on this?

Once again, you can't just drop an ASP.NET application into your SharePoint server. If your company and SharePoint dept feels this is best then they all need to gain a better understanding of SharePoint. A sandbox solution has nothing to do with this context unless you are providing a SharePoint solution and wouldn't make much sense anyway as your solution would need to make use application page most likely.
A PageViewer[^] webpart would provide the functionality to link the external pages. However, any security tokens, if necessary, are not sent to the other site by default unless you have SSO configured.

Hi
I have a web application created on wss3.0 and i use LDAP (active directory) authentication to authenticate the users. But there are few users who doesnt come under the domain, but still i want them to have access with customised credentials given to them.
Eg: i have domain abc and all the members of this domain can access the appliciation. But incase, if i want a member (who is not a member in abc domain) and have gmail account, i want him to access the site with gmail account. Is there any possibility to achieve this. Kindly guide me.
Thanks in advance

I wanted to create a consolidated view of lists from muliple locations. So, I created SOAP Service Connection (in SP Designer). Then I created a Linked Data Source to link multiple lists. I was able to create a Data View and create a consolidated view.
Now the problem I have is how some of the fields are being displayed (example: Facility). In the original list it displays just the name (example: ‘Fayette’). However, in the consolidated view it displays “28;#Fayette”. I have this similar issue with three other columns. The only difference is that the other columns displays ‘float;#’ before the numeric value.
I believe this may be due to the fact that the ‘Facility’ column is actually a lookup function on the original list (with drop down). And the columns with ‘float;#’ in front of the value are actually calculations.
Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
sv

When you have a Lookup field in your list a SPFieldLookup type is used whose default display value is obtained from SPFieldLookupValue and is a concatenation of the ID and Title from the source list.
You didn't specify what version of SharePoint you are working with so a specific suggestion can't be given.

I am working with SP Foundation.
I was able to solve the issue using the feedback I used. I made the following changes to my code:
xsl:value-of select="substring-after(@ows_Facility, ';#')"/
I used the same logic you provided for other columns that had a similar issue. The good part is the ‘2;#’ and ‘float;#’ disappeared from the Data View.
Now the one thing I’m still having trouble with is editing the calculation columns. For example I have a ‘Tonnage Capacity’ column, which is a calculation on the initial lists (tonnage capacity = pallet capacity * 1500). In my data view I am able to edit all my normal columns to a number format with 0 decimal places. However, when I format the Tonnage Capacity column to number format the values disappear. Is there a way around this?
Thanks for your help.

Hi
I have just changed V4.master in shraepoint designer 2010 and saved it after that I came back and changed it to default format,
Now when I change themes for Home site (parent for all other web sites for themes)just child web sites change and the in home web site just the color of links and libraries change. I can not change the theme of home site and it is like a fixed custom design.
I am just wondering if you can kindly advise me

Sounds like the master file may be changed.
If you want to revert back to the out of the box version, in sharepoint designer - right click the v4.master file and select "Reset to site definition".
|
|
|
|
|
|

The masterpage used by child sites can change independent of the root masterpage, especially with publishing sites or if code has been run on the child sites, perhaps with feature stapling when the site was created.

employee can check there record only but manager can see only his employee record and his record.

What phrase in the SharePoint logs can I search for to find out when SharePoint is being brought down and when it is returning to service?
For example when someone performs an IISRESET or restarts the server.
