Unregistering Custom Record Declaration Handlers
As you know, using the SharePoint 2010 server object model, you can install your own custom record declaration handlers. Didn’t know that? Oh? You mean you haven’t already setup your site to keep track of every time a record is declared or undeclared? Well, you’re in for a treat! But you’ll have a wait a [...]
European Best Practices Conference = Great!
Well, I’m back from a truly wonderful week in London attending and speaking at the European Best Practices Conference, and I have to say, there is something special about this show. I had the privilege of speaking 2 years ago, and I was impressed then by the quality of the event. But it has [...]
Upcoming SharePoint Conference Dates
Conference season is starting to heat up again. First up is the SharePoint Connections conference in Orlando, March 27-29. I’ll be giving three talks:
I’ll also be speaking at the upcoming SharePoint Best Practices conference in London, April 11-13. I had the distinct privilege of speaking at the London conference a couple of years back and [...]
CAML.NET Intellisense – Schema Update
One of the neat things about the latest version of CAML.NET Intellisense is that it automatically updates itself whenever a change is made to the published schema. The updated schema file is downloaded and installed the next time Visual Studio is started, so there is nothing you have to do, and you don’t have to [...]

For those of you already using the SharePoint 2007 version, you know the basic idea. Extend the default CAML schema files with detailed annotations imported from the [...]
Best Practices and a Bit of Poetry
So, I’m preparing for my first talk at the SharePoint Best Practices Conference here in Reston. It’s early, and my talk is about content discovery using a mathematical modeling technique based on matrix manipulation. Ok, I admit it’s kind of an abstract topic, but really pretty interesting (more in another post).
Anyway, I’m sitting there at [...]
Gearing up for the Best Practices Conference
Well, the date is fast approaching for the annual SharePoint Best Practices Conference hosted by MindSharp. This will be my first time speaking at the conference, and I must admit I’m getting pretty excited about it.
The thing about this conference that sets it apart from others is that it really focuses everyone’s attention on [...]
SharePoint Saturday DC – The Wave Builds
If the recent turnout at the SharePoint Saturday event in Washington DC is any indication, we are in for a wild ride as the SharePoint 2010 wave starts to build. Out of nearly 1200 registrations, over 900 people attended. Let me say that again – there were more than 900 attendees!
Now, I’ve spoken at SharePoint [...]
SharePoint Developer Center Goes Live
Checkout the new SharePoint Developer Center at http://msdn.microsoft.com/sharepoint. Lots of cool stuff, including links to how-to videos, articles and code samples.
I’m particularly excited about the new online SDK content. Microsoft apparently listened and learned from our collective cries of “Help!” when the 2007 version was released without enough quality supporting documentation. This time is [...]
