    Moving documents between libraries

    Hello, You can't do that. Sharepoint will take the date when the file was moved or changed. You could create your own date columns and with custom code keep the original date. But out of the box you SharePoint (SPS 2003) does not support that. Cheers, Thomas http://www.thompa.se

    why buy MOSS if you can self develop with WSS

    There are a lot of functionality that you will not get with WSS only a couple of examples are Excel Services, Form Services, Business Data Catalogue, Enterprise Search capabilties. Ofcourse you can do a lot of development with WSS and make it work good. The product choice all depends on what...

    Offline editing

    Hello, I do not think it is possible since SPS2003 does not offer very good versioning capabilities. I would think you will have to save the document with a new name. I know that there is a way that you can have a local copy on your machine and then update the online copy, but it will still...

    Create list from excel - problem

    Hello, Are you running SPS2003 (WSS V2)? It might be so that it is not compatible with that version of SharePoint. What happens if you save the your Excel file as XLS (Excel 97-2003) version? Does it work then? Cheers, Thomas http://www.thompa.se

    Find your version of sharepoint services

    Hi, Just to clarify do you want to know if it is WSS V2 or WSS V3? or just wich version, incl. SPS etc of WSS v2 (or V3)? You can find the version number of i.e WSS V2 in Central Admministration, you will have the version number listed on the Virtual Server page (I think). And Also you can...

    Site Actions menu not working

    Has there been any customizations done to this "rebelling site"? Through FrontPage Designer? Is it just this site that does not work? Or does the behaviour also occur if you create a new site (that is based on the same template as the rebelling one?) Cheers, Thomas http://www.thompa.se

    Directory Management Service "error: Access denied"

    Hi, Sounds like a permissions issue. Have you checked so that the account that handles these things in SharePoint have appropriate access in your AD (or other Directory Service)? The actual group and users are not created in SharePoint (as far as I know) so most likely you need to look into the...

    DMZ setup?

    Hello, It should be possible, but not sure how publishing ect. would work from your internal MOSS to the external WSS would work but technically it to me looks like it should work. We are setting up an extranet solution but we are basing everything on MOSS, but if I get any useful information I...

    send email notifications to another email address

    Hi, Not sure if this is really relevant or will help you. If you look at your users AD account properties. What does the e-mail field there say? I know that when I was using SPS 2003, that field was populated with the users email address and SPS2003 read also from that field. This meant that if...

    use Groove with SharePoint instead of upgrading bandwidth

    Hello, With the current version of Groove there are not that much integration with SharePoint (hopefully the next version will have a tighter integration). What you can do is to connect Document Libraries into Groove workspaces and then synchronize them. But besides that you do not have much...

    Calendar Events changed by 1 day

    Hello, Have you checked the Regional settings and Lcoale on both the server (OS) and in SharePoint (Both site/site collection and Central Administration?). Sounds very strange that it has moved one whole day! Then it can't (or should not be) anything to do with a possible daylight savings...

    raw content location

    Hi, Yes it is true that SharePoint stores all it's content in the SQL databases. So that is where you should have lots of diskspace. It is not only the metadata it is the actual documents and lists items aswell. Cheers, Thomas http://www.thompa.se

    Two installs on one machine

    Hi, No it is not possible to have two separate installs on one server. How about you trying to run virtual machines instead? Cheers, Thomas http://www.thompa.se

    Sharepoint Tasks Email

    If you are using WSS v2 or SPS 2003 it is not possible out of the box. With MOSS 2007 you could create a workflow that will trigger an email on the due date of a task. I suppose it would be possible to build a custom webpart that does this in WSS v2 and SPS 2003, but not sure how much work it...

    Email multiple users - Distribution List

    Hello, Out of the box you will not be able to do that, you would most likely have to write a custom webpart that will take care of sending an alert to several users (or to a user group). By design Microsoft does not allow anyone else than the user to set alerts (so as an Admin you can't force an...

    Users can edit and save Read-Only Documents

    Hello, If it is opened up as read-only you should as you say not be able to save it with the same name, overwriting the existing document. It is possible to open up the document as read-only and then from within the application set it to edit mode (atleast in Office 2007 applications). I have...

    sharpoint hyperlinks

    Are you wanting to add a hyperlink inside a Document Library? OOB that is not possible. You would have to create an html file which has somekind of redirect in it, so that you have a "physical" file in the library. Otherwise you will have to use a list to be able to add a hyperlink. Cheers...
