Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003, which is part of the Office System, lets you create and manage virtual servers, site collections, sites, workspaces, and users. You can also use the Windows SharePoint Services object model to design and implement user-targeted applications. In the second part of a two part series, the authors take a look at the WSS and SPS object models, Web Part Page anatomy, creating and deploying Web Parts, and Web Part security. They also discuss Web Part infrastructure and how to create custom Web Parts.

Part 1 of this series discussed how types built for the common language runtime can be shared among applications in the Microsoft .NET Framework regardless of the .NET languages used to build them. This second part continues with building assemblies by first covering security, sharing assemblies, versioning, localization, and side-by-side execution. Because in .NET two DLLs with the same name can be loaded as long as another attribute-which can include the localization language-differs, versioning is much easier than it used to be, so DLL Hell may become a thing of the past.

In the Admin Links web part in a default blog site, there are several links, the last one of which launches Microsoft Word and allows you to manage your posts from the Word blog template.  Cool feature.  But that web part is not configurable and I can't figure out how to duplicate that functionality.  It appears to have 3 GUIDS that are part of the function, part of the last parameter looks like the Posts list GUID, but it is concatenated with another GUID.   I want to either create my own web part or modify the XSL of the page to call the function, but I'm not sure what those other GUID parameters are.  Does anyone know?  The last one seems to be two of the separated by the # character.

Thanks

How do I make the title of a list appear within the web part and have the "blue bar" appear behind it. The ootb categories, other blog posts, and links does this. but, how do i make a new list do the same?

If I could do this, then I could have one site for my blog that includes links to documents and lists from the navigation.

Ideas?

I have a blog site with a category web part as navigation.

CategoryA

CategoryB

When i click on CategoryA, it opens : /Lists/Categories/Category.aspx?Name=CategoryA

When i click on CategoryB, it opens : /Lists/Categories/Category.aspx?Name=CategoryB

In category.aspx, i have added a discussion webpart, i have also added a column which is a lookup field which lists all the categories.

So that when you create a post, you tag the post with the correct category.

Now when i provide a filter from the category webpart to my discussion webpart:

The only column i can select from categories is "category with link", next screen i select the field category from the discussion web part.

But this does not seem to work. Clicking on CategoryA or CategoryB displays all post's regardless of the category in the  post.

Not sure if this is the way to do this, so any help is appreciated :)

I'm currently using wss3.
