I was working on an Enterprise Search deployment the other day and I encountered this lovely error. I found the answer buried in some forum posts, but I wanted to tell you what side effects I found when implementing the solution (and I wanted to make...
The other day, I had an issue importing User Profiles and Properties from Active Directory. In this case my MOSS server is on a child domain and it could import the child domain's objects, but it could not import the objects from the parent domain...

If you are like me, you go to the SharePoint logs folder often in an attempt to try and resolve various errors you may encounter when working with SharePoint. I noticed on some of my servers, that I was receiving an entry similar to the one below in my...
Recently, I wrote my own control to allow drilldown on Facets for one of our Enterprise Search pages, and someone pointed out to me that it never returns more than 50 results. It was then I remembered seeing a RowLimit property on the KeywordQuery and...
In my previous post about using the KeywordQuery class, I had one small omission. The fact is that when you add your own managed properties using the SelectProperties collection of the keyword class, the data type you get back is a string[] containing...
I am sure many of you have faced a situation like this yourselves. You meet some new developer and they ask you what you do and you tell them that you are a SharePoint developer and they are like "Oh. That's nice." I have to admit before...

At some point you may want to do an Enterprise Search query and specify that the results come from a particular content source. A lot of times you might create a custom scope with that content source in it, but if you don't want to create a new scope...
Today I realized that when I blogged about how to use the KeywordQuery class, I forgot to mention how to specify the scope(s) you are querying. You would think there would be a built-in property to set this, but there isn't. I wanted to see how Microsoft...
A while back, I posted a how to on using the KeywordQuery class and it seemed to get pretty good response, so I figured I would post a follow up on how to use the FullTextSqlQuery class today. It's actually pretty similar to using the KeywordQuery...
Yesterday, I talked about an issue with the SearchBox Web Part resulting from not having the Scope Display Group it used defined on my site collection. I mentioned, the best way to fix this was to have your feature create the scope display group for you...
I have caused this to happen a number of times and the answer isn't obvious at first, so I thought I would post on it and explain what causes it and how to fix it. The behavior usually occurs for me when I am deploying a SearchBoxEx web part via a...
Well, if you read, the Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies Team Blog , you know that the SharePoint SDK and MOSS SDK have been updated to version 1.3 which includes updates for SP1. Instead of someone that just posts the fact that this came...

I have seen quite a few searches for this warning in our stats, so I thought I would address the following message received when importing an application definition into the Business Data Catalog. Could not create profile page for Entity MyEntity. The...
I'll be giving my talk on Searching Business Data with MOSS Enterprise Search at the Tulsa SharePoint Developer's User Group on March 10th. This is the same presentation I gave at TechFest, but I have updated it some and will likely also cover...
This unfortunately is not as simple as it should be. Out of the box, there is not an option to delete a single crawled property. I sort of understand the reason behind this, but when developing its very easy to get your crawled properties filled with...
