Custom pagers for SPGridView
I don't think that the built in pagers for SPGridView are the most useful and informative, so for one of my current projects I decided to implement two custom pagers. The first was XofYPager which shows the page numbers like this: The second was SmartPager which shows the page numbers like this: The use of these pagers are very simple just include the classes below and then before you DataBind() your SPGridView set the PagerTemplate property to an instance of one of these classes.

Caching a SharePoint list as a datatable
For one of my current projects I needed to show a SPGridView with data from a small list on the frontpage of the Intranet. The list wasn't very small so didn't want to read if from the database on every hit of the frontpage, but on the hand it was so big that I couldn't cache it. Now the big question was how to cache it. If I used PortalSiteMapProvider then it'll always be refreshed when there was a change, but it would be hard to get the data into the SPGridView for displaying, sorting, paging and filtering.

WCMexport version 1.0
When you're branding a site using SharePoint 2007 Web Content Management, you really want to spend your time changing Master Pages and Page Layouts. But you often find that you spend a lot of your time editing your Feature.xml and different Elements.xml files especially if you have a lot of different Page Layouts with web parts for different parts of the site. WCMexport is a small utility which can help you if you don't like doing all the editing of the xml-files from scratch.

Remove Login box when anonymous users download office document from SharePoint Site
When developing Extranet/Internet site in SharePoint you often want to allow anonymous access and this works fairly well. But there is one are where the out of the box experience fails regarding anonymous access and that is when you allow the users to download Microsoft Office documents. In that case IE/Office pops up a couple of Login dialogs, if the user cancels out of these the document opens as expected, but you really don't want the user to have to cancel a couple of dialogs to open your documents. The essential code is fairly simple: Tags: SharePoint

Remove the Search Box from SharePoint Sites
Sometimes you don't want your users to be able to search on your SharePoint site. Part one of this is then to remove your site from the content source in SSP, but you probably also want to remove the Search box from every page in your site. Fortunately SharePoint makes this very easy. The different version of SharePoint has different requirements for the Search box and the way these different serach boxes are implemented are using the Delegate feature of WSS. Delegates are controls in a masterpage/page whose content is determined by which Features are activated.

  • FeatureReceiver To Cleanup WebPart Files
    Many web-part developers are surprised to see that their web-parts are listed as available even though they have deactivated the feature which contains them. And the users are equally surprised when they then try to add the web-part only to see it fail because the code (and safe-control entry) has been removed. The problem comes from the fact that deactivating a Feature doesn't remove files provisioned using Module and File entries.

  • Turn Default Upload Overwrite Off in WSS 3.0
    By default the Overwrite checkbox in Upload.aspx is checked in WSS 3.0 and MOSS 2007, but sometimes you may want to change this default. MOSS junkie has a post on how to change that default. But his solution has the downside of having to modify one of the standard application pages which is unsupported and may be overwritten by a upgrade. So how do we change the default without modifying upload.aspx? Once again the controls in the default masterpage can help us. This time it's the AdditionalPageHead delegate we can use. So we add a feature with the following elements.xml file: Tags: SharePoin

  • How to change Checkin comment after save
    If your company has very strict requirements on version numbering and want the comments to each of these versions to be correct, then you may run into a problem if you store the documents in SharePoint. The version comment is determined when you check in your document, and after the checkin there is no supported way to change these comments. If you really need to change the comments of a document and are willing to go the unsupported way of changing the content database directly then this little program can do the work for you: Tags: SharePoint

Accessing TFS 2010 from Visual Studio 2008
Today I found the need to also connect to TFS 2010 from Visual Studio 2008. In order to connect to Team Foundation Server from VS2008 you need the Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Explorer , then in order to connect to TFS 2010 you also need the Visual Studio Team System 2008 Service Pack 1 Forward Compatibility Update for Team Foundation Server 2010. Visual Studio 2008 Team Suite SP1. installed Visual Studio 2008 Team Explorer and then on top of that the Forward Compatibility Update. essentially due to a project that I cannot convert to 2010, yet).

Error installing SQL Server 2008 R2
I just tried installing SQL Server 2008 R2 in a VirtualPC environment. This caused an error, redownloading the.iso image from MSDN did not help. Binged it and found Bob Beauchmin had the same problem. Apparently the.iso reader in VirtualPC causes the problem. More here: [link].

  • Debugging in SQL Server 2008
    Anyway, today I am playing around , errm - doing serious stuff in the RC0 release of SQL Server 2008, and just by coincidence notice that there is a debug menu entry in the toolbar(how blind can one be - I must have been looking at that toolbar quite a few times). Tags: Katmai SQL 2008 SQL Server As good as SQL 2005 was (well, still are), one disappointment was that you needed Visual Studio if you wanted to debug your stored procedures. Seriously, what was MS thinking when they did that, especially as in SQL 2000, Query Analyzer had debug capabilities?!!

    These inserts were performed by inserting 50,000 independent objects using NoRM for MongoDB and LINQ to SQL for SQL Server 2008. GHz processor using the 64-bit versions of both SQL Server 2008 Standard and MongoDB 1.4.1. This article is a follow up one I wrote last week entitled “The NoSQL Movement, LINQ, and MongoDB - Oh My!”. In that article I introduced the NoSQL movement, MongoDB, and showed you how to program against it in.NET using LINQ and NoRM. highlighted two cornerstone reasons why you might ditch your SQL Server for the NoSQL world of MongoDB. Those were. Performance.

  • SQL Server 2008 R2 August CTP
    Yesterday I downloaded and installed the August CTP of SQL Server 2008 R2, and today I played around with it for a while. This will be part of SQL Servr 2008 R2. Tags: SQL 2008 R2 SQL Server So, what are my impressions… Well, from a perspective of being a relational dev and internals guy, my immediate response is … “yawn – where is the beef&#. it is not much there, and I doubt we will see much more in coming releases. However, if I were a BI / reporting guy I’d be over the moon, and definitely look forward to future CTP’s!
