This is part two of a three part series comparing SharePoint Search with KnowledgeLake Search.  KnowledgeLake Search has many features you just won’t find in SharePoint Search and features that are comparable to SharePoint out of the box but are not easy to use. You could try implementing some of these features on your own, but KnowledgeLake Search has years of experience

Technorati Tags: SP2010,Search,ECM,KnowledgeLake   I have been working on KnowledgeLake Imaging 4.2 for the last seven months. One of the main components of this product is our Search. Search is one of the most important parts of an effective ECM solution. KnowledgeLake Search adds incredible value to the out the box capabilities of SharePoint. In fact I would not want to

Technorati Tags: ECM,Search,SP2010 A principle of interface design is to provide the user with feedback about the status of the system and how that relates to the user's interactions with the system.

Technorati Tags: SP2010,CodeTips,CSOM I have seen many requests on how to set a managed metadata field using the client object model. Most of the questions revolve around the fact that many remote applications do not have access to the required information for setting a managed metadata field. A managed metadata field contains a term and the term is stored with three pieces of information. The

Scopes are an integral part of the search user interface allowing users to choose a scope before performing a search query. Scopes can also be used to pre-configure search web parts such as the Search Results

Technorati Tags: ECM,SP2010,Search Relevance is about how well search results match what the user wants to find. When searching for content I want a search engine to put the most relevant content at the top of the results page. Most search engines employ different algorithms or ranking models to compute what content item  is more relevant than another content item. Usually relevance is measured

Technorati Tags: SP2010,Search,ECM,FAST Developing SP2010 custom search solutions can be rewarding.

Technorati Tags: SharePoint,HowTo,ECM,Migration SharePoint has great built in methods to copy or move documents across sub-sites or lists within the same site collection. You can use SPFile.MoveTo or SPFilem.CopyTo. You can even move whole folders and their contents with the SPFolder.MoveTo method. Very nice. Unfortunately, these do not work across site collections. However you can use the

Technorati Tags: SharePoint HowTo Features There seems to be a lot of information on how to create a “Edit Control Block” for a list item in SharePoint. An ECB is a menu item that shows up when you click on an item in a SharePoint list or document library. You can generally make these by defining a feature and a custom action xml file. In the custom action xml file you set certain attributes of

Technorati Tags: SharePoint 2010 Search I recently attended the SharePoint conference in Las Vegas and the big emphasis was on Search and "findability". Microsoft has made search a key piece to SharePoint's enterprise content management capabilities. Getting content into SharePoint has been easy, but now customers are demanding better solutions on how to find and leverage the content once it is

Technorati Tags: ECM,MOSS,WSS I found out yesterday I was awarded MVP for SharePoint Server. Its is great to be rewarded for something you love to do. You cannot keep what you cannot give away. Giving back to the community is an easy thing to do, especially in the MSDN forums. SharePoint is such a product that if you know how something works then you must share it with others, it makes

Technorati Tags: WSS,MOSS,ECM,Integration This is a follow up post to the “Uploading Content To SharePoint”. In that post I evaluated the performance and complexity of uploading content to SharePoint with three different methods. In this post I will be doing comparisons for downloading content from SharePoint. Once again there are many ways to get content from SharePoint. When I say content I am

Many developers new to SharePoint want to know how to get content into SharePoint from another application. This application is usually a remote application either running in a asp.net application or a desktop application. The developers may be familiar with the SharePoint object model and how to use it to put content into SharePoint. However, when it comes to doing this remotely there seems to

  Technorati Tags: WSS MOSS Search One of the most convenient features of SharePoint Search is its ability to automatically discover crawled properties and create new managed properties. This is good because as a SharePoint administrator I don't want to have to take requests from users to set up new managed properties to search on. So basically whenever an incremental crawl occurs and the

Technorati Tags: MOSS,Search In software development one of the key rules is not to take functionality away from users. However, if you do then you should document the fact. The new infrastructure update removes the "Contains" and "Does not contain" operators from the Advanced Search Box webpart. This is probably due to the fact that the webpart uses the "Like" operator instead of using the

Technorati Tags: SharePoint Development,WSS   There is a lot of material on the Internet about the Microsoft.SharePoint.SPWeb.ProcessBatchData method. It is a great method for processing a lot of commands against a SPList without having to open a SPListItemCollection and pay the penalty of slow performance if the list contains a substantial amount of items. The ProcessBatchData method seems

Technorati Tags: MOSS,WSS,Document Management   It seems to be easy to have a lot of documents checked out in SharePoint 2007, yet nobody knows about them except the person who uploaded the document. SharePoint 2007 lets you upload documents first and then index them later. As you know indexing a document is pretty important if you want to find it. So many times columns in content types

Uploading files to SharePoint can be done many ways including the upload page, front page extensions remote procedure calls and webdav using Windows Explorer. Of course Microsoft Office uses its own proprietary ways

Technorati Tags: MOSS,WSS,SharePoint Development,Discoverability,Testing A big topic these days is about "Discoverability" and the .Net framework. Developers talk about how big the .Net framework has become with 2.0, 3.0 and now 3.5 frameworks. There a several ways to discover capabilities of a  framework. One way is word of mouth via blogs or developers you work with. Another is just searching

Technorati Tags: WSS SharePoint Search In previous posts I talked about the pitfalls of searching in WSS or MOSS. I wanted to report one more limitation we have discovered when doing cross-list searches in WSS using the SPSiteDataQuery object. The SPWeb.GetSiteData method is used to execute cross-list searches within a site collection. This method takes a SPSiteDataQuery object which contains

This is my first post of many regarding Sharepoint 2007 development and some of the interesting things I came across during the last four months. This is being posted from Word 2007 and its new ability to directly publish to blogs. So if it has some problems, then please bear with me until I can correct them.Many quirks that I observed in the beta releases of Office 2007 have been fixed in RTM.
