<title>SharePoint's Delegate Control Power</title>
<link>http://www.dotnetcat.com/news/SharePoint/id/8420/</link>
<pubDate>Fri, 18 Jan 2008 22:10:53 -0600</pubDate>
<description> <![CDATA[ One complaint about Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services (WSS) 2.0 and Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2003 was the difficulty in making changes to the environment after it was deployed. Officially, changing a site definition isn't supported after it has been used to create other sites.
Now, Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007 offer many ways to make changes to sites after they have been provisioned. The introduction of SharePoint Features has opened up an entire world to changing master pages, page layouts, and pages themselves. Further, SharePoint now includes a new technique&acirc;€”delegate controls&acirc;€”that allows for more fine-grained control over parts of the page. ]]> </description>

<description> <![CDATA[ No matter how much content you provide or how good it is, if your customers can't find what they're looking for they'll go elsewhere. It's no wonder then that there are hundreds of search technology vendors. Which solution should you choose?
Windows Live Search crawls content on the Internet and also exposes search functionalities to developers through a Web service that allows the search to be scoped down to just your site. You can then render the results however you see fit.
Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 is another good choice. It's a complete site-building and management solution that also provides robust search functionality...

<description> <![CDATA[ The focus of this month’s Office Space column is to introduce the fundamental building blocks you’ll use to create business solutions with WSS (Windows SharePoint Services) and MOSS (Microsoft Office SharePoint Server). I explain what a WSS &quot;feature&quot; is and show you how to build one that automates the creation of new lists and document libraries within a site. Along the way I add a custom application page to the custom business solution. This contains the Visual Basic code needed to generate Word documents from data within SharePoint lists and save these documents within a SharePoint document library. ]]> </description>

<title>WebParticles: Developing and Using Web User Controls as WebParts in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007</title>
<link>http://www.dotnetcat.com/news/SharePoint/id/7004/</link>
<pubDate>Tue, 27 Mar 2007 19:36:00 -0500</pubDate>
<description> <![CDATA[ Visual Studio developers have enjoyed the speed and consistency of visual designers for controls since the pre-.NET days of Visual Studio. In the world of Microsoft Office Server 2007 Web Part development, developers have no visual designer available for the development of WebParts. This means dynamically loading controls or concatenating a large number of strings in order to render even the simplest controls. (One could also use XSLT, but that discussion is for another day). We are not quite ready to give up the intuitive and speedy development visual designers offer.
Visual Studio does offer the ability to design User Controls, including Web User Controls. But these controls cannot be used as SharePoint WebParts and personally, I want to do just that. This article will introduce the concept of creating distinct components (Web Particles) that together provide the full benefit of SharePoint WebParts while still allowing the use of the familiar and productive visual designers available to Web User Control developers. I refer to these components (tongue in cheek) as WebParticles since each one is just a portion of the functionality ultimately provided by the WebPart. ]]> </description>
