SharePoint brings more power than ever to the end user. As usual, this is a double-edged sword. Its utility as a development platform is unmatched, but since many of the development tools are accessible from the browser UI, the dividing lines can get...
Typical SharePoint 2010 install. I had created all my domain users, set up my servers, and started installing the prerequisites. When the first box in the farm restarted and the preparation utility came up, I was asked for credentials and provided them...
Occasionally, you have a calendar full of all-day events and you don't want the calendar cluttered up with redundant timestamps. Here's a simple client-side script, suitable for framing (or a master page, or a content editor web part) that will cut down...
This is a fairly common request, but the solution is often missing one crucial point. To use a custom New/Edit/Display form on your list, proceed as follows: Open your site in SharePoint Designer. Right-click the desired List (under the Lists node) and...

How many times has this happened to you? SPSite site = new SPSite("url"); SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb(); SPList list = web.Lists["ListName"]; ERROR!!! ...because, of course, that list happens not to exist! Have you ever wished for a better approach than...
This week, I had to create a few profiles (by hand) for Forms Auth user accounts. Of course, in order to do this, you need to make sure the SSP's People Picker can recognize them. I dutifully added the provider info and the requisite connection string...
