I am presenting four sessions at the Swedish SharePoint & Exchange Forum. The four sessions are:
Day 1: 8th September 2008
09:30-10:30 "Creating business application using Access 2007 and SharePoint" - Power Track; Room Russin:
This session looks are how to use Office Access 2007 to build applications with Windows SharePoint Services. The integration of these two products allows for better manageability of the data and ownership of the solution by the business.
12:45-13:45 "Business Data Catalog (BDC) Crash Course for IT Professionals" - Nerd Track 1; Room Stockholm Salen:
The Business Data Catalog (BDC) is arguably the most powerful feature in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007. Many organizations have contemplated using the BDC to bridge the gap between MOSS 2007 and external business applications such as CRM and ERP as no code needs to be developed. This session looks at the BDC from the IT Professional perspective, the BDC architecture and security model are discussed and it's affect on network traffic. The session then demonstrates how to manage and configure the BDC, including BDC integration into Search and User Profiles. This session also includes a brief demonstration of the out-of-the box BDC Web Parts.
15:20-16:20 "Use SharePoint Designer to produce business solutions" - Nerd Track 1; Room Stockholm Salen:
In this Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007 session, you will learn how easy it is to create views of your data using the Data View Web Part (DVWP), also known as the Data Form Web Part (DFWP) - the Swiss Army knife of Web Parts. Then watch as a Data Form Web Part is combined with ASP.NET controls to validate user input, thereby maintaining data integrity. The session produces the solution without writing any code.
Day 2: 9th September 2008
13:30-14:30 "Branding SharePoint Sites: Using the browser and SharePoint Designer" - Power Track; Room Russin:
If you are new to branding SharePoint Sites then this session is for you. The session covers the basics of branding SharePoint Sites and how the browser and SharePoint Designer can help you in this task. The session will cover such topics as content pages, page layouts, master pages and themes.
I will be posting site templates at my SharePoint Designer Step By Step site, which will include files and step by step instructions on how to complete the demonstration I'll include in my session. If you are attending come and talk to me.
