I need to create alerts to group/all employees in my site.To my site home page basing on the data pushed into "custome list" by administrator in moss 2010 intranet site.So can any one suggest steps to acheive this.Hoping quick replys...
Create a simple workflow using SharePoint designer and send out alerts/notification emails to the users in the group when something happens in your list (like a costume worth more than 100 bucks is entered etc..). You can trigger this notifications workflow in many scenarios.
See this link.
Check out this video on how to create workflows using designer.
Having said that, if you need a pop-up or a message box to appear when a user visits the site (and ofcourse when something changed on your list) then you have to write code in the load event of the page/any web part on the page to display popup. SharePoint 2010 has Javascript API which makes it easy for you to display pop-up or you can do this totally in the code.

I am working on creating a SharePoint 2010 site in which I have placed the content in wiki libraries. I want to have a feedback textbox on every page. On clicking submit, there are two options, I can store the feedback text in yet another custom SharePoint list or configure it to send an email.
Please guide me on how to go about adding the feedback textbox ?
thanks in advance
You can do this with the out of the box "Note Board" web part in the "Social Collaboration" section. You can add it to the page layout if you have publishing enabled. This will add it to every wiki page.
If you don't have publishing enabled, you will have to add the web part to each page individually.
This has the added advantage of leveraging the existing social features in SharePoint 2010. Meaning you will be able to see the notes you have added from your MySite and it will be shared with colleagues.
I'm using Sharepoint Designer (2010) to develop a series of connected lists.
I have a number of child-lists and I use the "DispForm.aspx" of my main list to add these 'children'.
Recently the DispForm.aspx has stopped opening in Sharepoint Designer. Clicking it from the list's main page goes into the Form view, but the page never loads and I get no error messages.
Since I can't see the Code window I can't make any changes, even though the page works fine in the browser and I can perform (limited) edits directly on the website through Sharepoint.
Has anyone got any tips on what I could try, or any way of accesing the code in DispForm.aspx if I can't open it in Sharepoint Designer?
Not a fix as such, but I got around this by mapping a drive to the sharepoint site and using notepad++ to edit the file directly.
If you browse the lists folder and the list you are interested in you will see the display, new, edit forms in there

I have a website where I am filling form data through VB.Net 2010 through WebBrowser control.
I am able to set value for input:text, input:password, checkbox, select and able to submit form.
But I am not able to select input:file programmatically. I am also able to open
"Choose a File" Dialog.
How can I send file name to select and press OK button from VB.Net Code?
I am pretty sure this is a browser security feature to prevent malicious web-sites from auto-uploading random files from the user's website to themselves. Consider how dangerous it would be if any website could pull arbitrary files off the user's computer without any explicit action from the user.
Your best bet is probably going to be dumping the Web Browser control since it will limit you to its security model. Instead consider directly getting the web page and posting a response within your application.
The following .NET namespaces should come in handy for that:
System.Net.HTTPWebRequest
System.Net.TTPWebResponse
Hj,
I want to Sync SharePoint Tasks and Outlook Tasks 2010 but the custom columsn in SP do not exist in outlook. Did anyone have a solution for this stuff. :)
Many thanks.
Feature for users with Outlook 2010, iPhone, and SharePoint 2010 project list/task.
I was able to get SharePoint 2010 list/ task items to show up on the iPhone ios5 reminders.app
Step One- is go to SharePoint 2010 site and Connect to Outlook 2010
http://epmsource.com/2011/02/09/sync-project-tasks-to-outlook-without-exchange/
Step Two- is check for the linked SharePoint task to be added to users SharePoint List in Outlook
Step Three- is to drag SharePoint List in Outlook Normal task.
Step Four- is the final view of the users outlook account folder hierarchy
Step Five- on the iPhone go to settings.app àexchange mail à turn on Reminders
Step Six- on the iPhone go to reminders.app à swipe left to see second SharePoint list task.
Only problem is the you will notice that the projects under my task doesn’t have the blue two arrows anymore. That’s because it’s not going to talk to SharePoint anymore. When I move it to my mailbox the it got disconnected. If I get it to work I will update you. But who knows may your views can found a fix faster.
Without any third party software you can not do that. But there is a work around:
On SP go to ~'Add Existing Columns' -> Choose ~'Core Task Columns' -> add some columns from there to your list. You can rename added columns as you wish but you can not change their type.
Sync your list with Outlook & create some dummie entries to test it.
Now you can check how Tasks are represented on Outlook. You can find entries in task form. Go to: Show -> Details, Task.
If you want to add a control to your list items such as a dropbox or date, you can do that with Outlook custom forms. But in SP task list column value will be represented as single line of text.
Unfortunatelly you have to give a lot for custom values :)
Is it possible to display an HTML page in an Office 2003 and/or 2007 task pane via VBA?
Background: We have a complicated configuration file that our users maintain in Word (using a real editor is not an option for our audience).
We would like to create several toolbar buttons that display a basic HTML page in a task pane as a form of online help for our users.
The reason we want to use a task pane to display help (vs. an external browser or traditional help engine) is so that the help content is "embedded" in Word vs. displayed via a seperate application. The problem with using a regular browser or help engine to display help is that users have to manually size and position both applications so that they can see them simultaneously and its very easy to "lose" one application when togging between many applications.
We don't want to go down the route of writing a VisualStudio based task pane component - we want to keep things simple (KISS) and encapsulate everything in an easy to distribute Word template file (.dot or dotx.).
Suggestions?
Yes it is possible, see this blog for detailed steps in creating the custom task pane in Excel 2007.
