Sharepoint Permissions Manager

Abstracts:

Project Description

Managing permissions in SharePoint is a complex and often difficult to understand by end users. In addition, features for managing permissions on a site are splitted on several screens and must access on each item to finely manage the associated rights. When the site is important, it quickly becomes difficult to obtain an overview of permissions and each change creates a lot of work.

This version works with MOSS 2007 and WSS 3.0

Functions

This tool aims to bring together on one screen, most of management capabilities of permissions for an entire site:
- Overall display permissions for groups on the Sharepoint libraries and website pages
- Adding, modifying, deleting permissions with a few clicks without having to go through a lot of screens
- Export as an Excel table permissions
- Copy permissions between lists and pages

SharePoint 2010 Data : Access using .NET Client Object Model

On MSDN, a new article along with video is now available for "Accessing SharePoint 2010 Data with the .NET Client
Object Model" provided by Andrew Connell.

abstract of the original article:

With each release of Microsoft SharePoint, developers ask for additional web services to simplify reading and writing SharePoint site data from custom code not on the server that is running SharePoint. Instead of building more and more web services, Microsoft introduced in SharePoint 2010 the client object model, which contains a familiar subset of frequently used objects. The client object model is very similar to the SharePoint server object model. This SharePoint Visual How To demonstrates how to use the SharePoint 2010 .NET client object model.

Saving changes is not permitted The changes you have made require the following tables to be dropped and re-created. - SQL Server 2008

When you try to change something in SQL Server 2008 related to table, you may encounter a dialog saying the following message

Saving changes is not permitted The changes you have made require the following tables to be dropped and re-created. You have either made changes to a table that can't be re-created or enabled the option Prevent saving changes that require the table to be re-created.

Normally, whenever I faced this message earlier, I used to do the change using SQL command, but today I found something interesting.

Here are the abstracts from that:

New default in SQL Server's Management Tools: When you design a table in
a database and then try to make a change to a table structure that
requires the table to be recreated, the management tools will not allow
you to save the changes. Instead you'll be greeted by this friendly
dialog:

Notice that there's no option to save the changes - it's a hard rule
that is applied upon saving and you can get past this other than back
out of the dialog.
