• How to: Query List Items from the Host Web in a Client Web Part of a SharePoint Hosted app

  That’s a mouthful, but I wanted to make sure that people knew exactly what this post is for.  The problem I am seeing out there already is that while there is a lot of code samples, they aren’t clear for what type of app the sample is for. ...

• How to: Deploy Metadata Navigation without using code

  As someone who focuses mostly on ECM and Search, I am a huge fan of the new Metadata Navigation feature on document libraries in SharePoint 2010.  It provides a great alternative to folders when it comes to navigating your document libraries. ...

• Deploying an External List via Feature using CAML #sp2010

  I’ve been talking a lot about external lists lately as you may know.  They are so easy to create with SharePoint Designer, but you wouldn’t really deploy them to production that way would you?  Of course not!  We need a feature.  At...

• Does Save Site as Template preserve Version History in sp2010?

  It looks like the answer is no.  When you click the Include Content checkbox on the Save as Template page, it looks like only the latest version of documents and lists items are included in the .wsp file.  I ran a few tests and here is what...

• Using the PropertyBag element to assign properties to Items in SharePoint 2010

  When the NDA dropped, I mentioned how you could use the new PropertyBag element in a feature to write values into the property bag of a site.  I already thought that was going to be incredibly useful, but it turns out the power of this new element...

• Deploying Relational Lists using CAML in SharePoint 2010

  One of my favorite new features in SharePoint 2010 is the ability to have lists relate to each other and the fact that you can maintain referential integrity.  Now, I am sure there are at least 50 posts out there already that show you how to do this...

• SPQuery Error: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException was unhandled by user code. Cannot complete this action. Please try again.

  When I get an error, I like to blog about it.  Especially when the error gives you no useful information whatsoever.  Now, you can get the above error in a variety of ways, but the one I am going to discuss today is when using SPQuery. ...

• Enabling Content Approval on a List using CAML

  I’ve always liked the power of CAML because it allows me to create so much in SharePoint without ever having to write a line of code.  However, there really isn’t enough examples out there, so I like writing posts like these that focus on doing something...

• Error: Reference to undeclared namespace: ‘ns1’ when trying to create a custom Document Information Panel

  I’ve been chasing this particular error for a little while and thought I would take the time to share my experience and how to resolve it.  The scenario I had is I have a custom content type with several custom site columns.  I generated the...

• Using CAML to deploy a lookup column via Feature

  This week, I needed to deploy lookup columns to some of my lists and as usual I wanted to avoid writing code at all costs.  As some of you may know, Kyle Kelin and I debate this topic often as he prefers a code approach.  I figured it had to...

• Using CAML to add Web Parts to an existing page

  In the past when I thought of how to do this, I tended to over analyze it a bit. I always assumed there was something special in how you do this, but in reality, it is not much different than adding web parts to a new page. I am not sure if this is the...
