Well, I've been taking it easy, only doing the work I have to, so SPSFAQ has been left on the shelf a bit, but it's summer!

My first update is an interesting one from John Duff, it allows you to narrow down your search results by selecting from the document properties values. It's an auto generated Search Form designed from Content Classes. Quite nifty you'll agree, download the ZIP file here The instructions are in the SPSFAQ itself:

SPSFAQ090149 - Can I Narrow down search results by selecting from the document properties values?

Next I've two links, one is to a site with some useful SPS2003 web parts by Tim Heuer. The Workspace Explorer is great, as it gives you a navigation method for users to link to all the sites in your portal. There's also an RSS Feed Reader and "My Checked-out" and "Pending Approvals" Web Parts. There are trial versions, but you have to pay for the version without out some red text at the top saying "this is a trial version" But they're very good so I think they're worth the money. Visit here to take a look.

I thought this one might be useful:

SPSFAQ080170 - Is there a tool to copy a branch in the Document library from one Workspace to another?

It's a product I've never used, but it might save someone a lot of time.

Here's another one that saved my life recently, I needed to refer to the code of an SPS2003 Web Part I'd done, but I only had remote access to the DLL, not the Visual Studio Project, so I found a site to let me decompile the DLL online. It wasn't perfect, but it gave me enough of a prompt to remember what I'd written. This could also be used on someone else's work, but please use it fairly guys, you wouldn't like it if someone ripped off your work!

SPSFAQ080272 - How can I decompile my SPS2003 Web Parts?

Here's a new Knowledge Base article for my KB Articles page:

'The File Exists' Error Message When You Upload Files by Using the Om_Sample Code Sample from the SharePoint Portal Server SDK (Q323622)

I've also done a quick howto for V2TR Web Parts to meet the new security requirements for this release. It's a bit rough, but it should help.

Finally, notice my Google ads? I think this is a really clever idea and I'll be interested to see how many of you will actually click through to the sites they lead to.
