I'm trying to query a SharePoint list using the following CAML query in a webpart. I have tested the query in U2U CAML Query Builder and Stramit CAML Viewer and it works fine, only returning the matching records, but when I use it in my webpart it return all list items. It is driving me crazyyyyy. Here is the code: string camlQuery = string.Format(@"<Query><Where><Contains><FieldRef Name='Title' /><Value Type='Text'>2</Value></Contains></Where></Query>"); SPQuery query = new SPQuery(); query.Query = camlQuery; SPListItemCollection items = Articles.GetItems(query); grid.DataSource = items

I've written a WCF service which tries to read the list items from a particular list in SharePoint. For testing purposes I run the WCF service using Visual Studio ASP.Net Development server. I pass the Site ID to the web service and from the web service I try to open the List and read the items. But when I try to read the items I'm getting the following error - This operation can be performed only on a computer that is joined to a server farm by users who have permissions in SQL Server to read from the configuration database.

I want to get all items from a specific list in recurring meeting workspace. I tried to execute the following CAML: <Query> <Where> <IsNotNull> <FieldRef Name='ID' /> </IsNotNull> </Where> </Query> But it only displays data for the upcoming meeting. However when I open list, from actions menu I can choose to display data from all meetings. That makes me think it is possible. I know I can convert the list to series items so they appear in all meetings, but it is not that I want. Yeehaaw! Finally I found a solution! SPQuery class has a property MeetingInstanceId , which one you can assign a

Having spent the past few weeks familiarising myself with WSS 3.0 I finally want to get around to doing some Sharepoint development. I have Visual Studio Express installed on my Sharepoint server, but when I try to install the "WSS 3.0 Tools: Visual Studio Extensions" from Microsoft it tells me that I don't have Visual Studio installed. A quick check to the pre-reqs on the download site tell me that this extension only applies to the Standard, Professional, or Team editions.

Is there a way to limit the "edit item" permission in WSS 3.0 to only allow a user to edit his own documents or list items? We need the ability for a user to edit only documents/list items he creates - NOT items that someone else created. So, essentially we need a sub-set of the EDIT permission as well as ADD.

Abs WSS has a basic UI for setting item-level permission on list items, but they hide that from the UI for document libraries. If you go into Settings->List Settings-
