How to write an event to manage permissions on a document while uploading, depending on custom field

HI,

I am trying to find a solution to manage permissions on a document, while uploading it into a document library. This event has to be fired if a custom field is populated (it's a check box field).

can i capture Check-in event.

Please advise.

thanks

Custom Field Control 'not registered as safe'

Hi all,

ÃÂ

my goal is to create a custom field control based on a custom field, to be part of a custom content type which derives from a publishing page. Also I want the custom field control to be part of a custom page layout which is associated with my custom content type.

ÃÂ

I followed the steps from Patrick Tisseghems book 'Inside MOSS2007', which includes the following instructions:

ÃÂ

Create and implementÃÂ the following classes: CustomField, CustomFieldValue, CustomFieldControl. Sign them and deploy the assembly to the GAC.
Create a User Control Custom.ascx. Copy it to Controltemplates directory.
Create fldtypes_custom.xml and copy to 12\TEMPLATE\XML
Add <SafeControl /> entry to web.config
IISRESET

I did of all the above plus IÃÂ created a page layout in SharePoint Designer which contains an instance of my CustomFieldControl.

ÃÂ

When IÃÂ create an instance ofÃÂ CustomPage (derived content type from Publishing Page, with extra field of type CustomField) with my custom page layout and add it to the Pages library of my Publishing site, everything seems to go fine. When i edit properties of the pageÃÂ with /Pages/Forms/EditForm.aspx I can even edit the custom field value trough the interface using mu custom field control! Everything seems to work perfectly!

Creating a custom drop down field type with SelectedIndexChanged Event

Hi All, I am trying to create a custom drop down field type and I was able to acheive that using the MS link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb861799.aspx. As per the link, once the custom field is created we can override the "Validate" method to write the Validation logic and that works fine for me too. However I am facing a challenge even before going to Validate . Let me explain my actual requirements here. I need to build a custom drop down field and expose the field to the user in "Edit Properties " Page of a document library. Along with this field, I will be having some OOB site columns in the Edit Properties Page (Ex: Title, Subject etc) . When user selects a value in the drop down, I need to hide/show few OOB site columns based on certain criteria. I am facing a challenge of how to capture the "SelectedIndexChanged " event for the Custom drop down field in Sharepoint (Can we wire the SelectedIndexChanged event to a custom dropdown field type) ? Is this acheivable in SP 2010 Custom field type ? If so, how can I do it ? Can any of you kindly help me here? Regards, Yesh

Custom Field - SP is creating HyperLinks and using HTML entities

Hello. I'm seeking help with a problem related to a custom field in SharePoint 2010. Our Custom Field builds upon (extends) the SPFieldMultiLineText field. Data saved to our Custom Field is being processed by SharePoint before it is sent to the client. For example < and > is replaced by HTML entities (< and >). Text such as http://bing.com and mail@bing.com is automatically being converted to hyper links (<a href="mailto:mail@bing.com">mail@bing.com</a>). Is it in any way possible to have SharePoint deliver the data as it was stored in the custom field? We don't want it to replace HTML with HTML entites, nor should it create hyperlinks automatically. I have attached our XSL file below. <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:x="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/dsp" version="1.0" exclude-result-prefixes="xsl msxsl ddwrt" xmlns:ddwrt="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebParts/v2/DataView/runtime" xmlns:asp="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ASPNET/20" xmlns:__designer="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebParts/v2/DataView/designer" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" xmlns:SharePoint="Micros
