    Migrating site collection from Pre-SP1 to SP2

    This is a good one, I don't see a reason why you could not, you definitely can't go backward from SP2 to SP1 without restore issues (mostly the infrastructure update) but I can't think of any time I have had issues moving up version. I would test thoroughly even if the answer here was yes...

    Sharepoint designer sql data update edit tools?

    First thoughts: You could add the access database to the SharePoint or use Inforpath. You cannot use InfoPath Web Based forms to add content however so you will have open the form with the actual infopath product. If you want to use web based forms capture the data through infopath in...

    For automatic authentication either place the site in your trusted sites or your intranet zone in IE and configure IE to send your credentials automatically. Several Thoughts on Authentication: http://sharepointglobal.blogspot.com/2009/04/implementing-help-desk-configuring.html You may and...

    Browsing SP folders with SPD installed

    I don't think I understand exactly what you are trying to say, but I can give you a few ideas. SharePoint uses a custom version of the webdav protocol. If you inadvertantly altered this in your installation you may have a problem. Otherwise I would consider what else may have changed for your...

    email files to sharepoint3.0

    Most all of the SharePoints I have deployed are email enabled and its pretty well documented. You have to setup your smtp services/server configure sharepoint to pickup the mail from the mail root drop folder. Make sure you have an mx record for the SharePoint server etc. Once its email...

    Tracking Mileage for each employee

    You could probably use a list with different views pretty easily for data entry, but most of the difficulty is getting it to display on the blackberry... with your limited committment to SharePoint (ie wss 3.0 ;-) ) I would recommend sending a report out via email that gives them their totals...

    SharePoint integration

    MOSS does have security zones built in so that you can let access content, if you need authentication you could use FBA to let specific externel users access and enter content. This is definitely the prefered way. Patrick http://sharepointglobal.blogspot.com/

    Programatically filter by domain group on master page....

    My first thought is that with MOSS and the publishing features enabled you can really easily customize navigation. You don't have audience targeting with WSS 3.0. Thanks! Patrick Patrick http://sharepointglobal.blogspot.com/

    Using one list across multiple sites

    What about using workflows to keep the items synchronized. You could also use one list a source for a dataview web part. There are probably a few ways to accomplish this, its all about the requirments of your site. Patrick http://sharepointglobal.blogspot.com/

    Automatic Login to Sharepoint

    I take it an anonymous won't work. I have a few ideas about saving passwords in computers, but they would have to configure their machines. It would probably be possible to send out a memo with the configuration...

    Sharepoint 2003 migration to 2007

    Least painful is to do as you suggest: 1. Build two new servers. 2. Then run the prescan tool on your existing farm (always a good thing to do, can fix minor issues). 3. Then move the databases over to your new sql server 4. Then add them into your 2007 sharepoint web application. You can...
