I would like to know whether the search facility of Microsoft SharePoint Workspace allows to search within the meta data columns of documents!
For example, I want to search for a document based on its DocumentID.

I'm trying to establish whether its possible to connect lists to external SQL tables with SharePoint 2013 Foundation.
I know that is possible in the paid versions through Business Connectivity Services. However, most places I look, BCS is shown as not included in Foundation.
The one thing that contradicts this is page here. Whilst admittedly its titled Office 365, it does include a list for On Premise solutions which suggests that BCS External List IS included in SharePoint Foundation. However, the link takes you to a page entitled “Deploy a Business Connectivity Services cloud-only solution in SharePoint 2013”.
If it is possible, then it seems that we will need to setup a Secure Store to holds ID and passwords for external sources.
Has anyone managed to link Lists to external tables in SharePoint 2013 Foundation (it needs to be 2013 as I understand Microsoft withdrew BCS for that release)? Any pointers would be very welcome to stop us going round in circles.
Thanks,
Chris.
If you have visual studio 2012 installed in the SharePoint server, you can create a "SharePoint 2013 - Empty Project", and then in the project, add a new item called "Business Data Connectivity Model".
You can search for many tutorials for "Business Data Connectivity Model", such as the example link below (note the video is about sharepoint 2010, but you can use it for sharepoint 2013):

This solution will work for SharePoint 2013 Foundation as I have done that myself.

I am looking for a migration tool. We want to upgrade from SharePoint Server 2007 to SharePoint 2010 in a new environment. We need to have functionality to granulary select which content to migrate and eaven select to map to new structure in the new solution.
We want to tag the content migrated.
The migration tools we are considering are AvePoint, Axceler Davinci, Metalogix.
I'm doing migration scenarios for a consultant firm based in Montreal. First of all, I think you have the correct thinking about how you want to get this done. Doing a SharePoint upgrade (database upgrade) usually bring your SharePoint 2007 problems over to SharePoint 2010.
Here's what we usually do :
Define governance for the new SharePoint platform
Define the new Information Architecture
Implement the new Information Architecture (build sites, lists, libraries, etc.)
Migrate the content over
Tools such as Sharegate (www.share-gate.com) can allow you to do some mapping from your old content source over to the new one.
Hopefully, this will help you!
I am looking at ways of automating creation of sites in a site collection in SharePoint 2010. Actually, for some load/stress test, I need to create around 100 sites in a site collection. I can create a site from the SharePoint admin site. But I wish to create large number of them and possibly using some automation.
Please let me know possible ways.
stsadm.exe is no longer available for Sharepoint 2010
However you use cmdlets: New-SPSite
Like: New-spsite –url http://someWeb/sites/someSite -OwnerAlias domain\username -template STS#0
stsadm.exe is still available in SharePoint 2010.
I have a list of external link items that I have created underneath a standard team site on our SharePoint 2010 portal. I then created a number of folders to help categorise the links, but can't find any way of moving those links into the folders I created.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks.
I suggest let end users use the SharePoint designer to do this. SharePoint designer is free to download from Microsoft's website and it's a must-have tool to use SharePoint.
I would need to restrict some file types in sharepoint 2010 like rft's etc.
