Anticipating the arrival of SharePoint Foundation 2010, wouldn't it be great if we can setup a test environment so we can have a feel of what it is like working with the new version of SharePoint?
I have read that installing SharePoint 2010 Server requires a number of prerequisites. Before I spend a great deal of time looking for them all, is there a place where I can download them all at once? In this tip I show you a simple solution.
SharePoint logs information to the Windows Event log and a file on the local drive which is normally located in the hive (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\Logs). The log files on disk (trace logs) can be very hard to read using notepad or other basic programs.
Sometimes there are requirements in a Variated Multi-Lingual SharePoint portal which require having a unified single source document library/list with its folder structure to be displayed across all webs (Sub Sites : ex: English, Arabic, French, etc...) but achieving this we will face two serious problems. We'll discuss them in detail through this two part article series.
This blog provides a nice summary description of some of SharePoint 2010's " Business Connectivity Services", allowing users to connect to and update external resources (i.e. SQL databases), directly from SharePoint.
