I had a great time this weekend at SharePoint Saturday Houston. The event was well run and @danluciano , @victor_chat , @davidfrette , and everyone else involved did a great job. I’m not sure what the final turnout numbers were, but it sounds...
When I was mapping some managed properties from one of my Content Sources using the BCS, I noticed that the crawled properties were named slightly different in SharePoint 2010. I thought this was worth a quick note, so here we are. In MOSS...
Lots of things have changed in Enterprise Search and the CoreResultsWebPart is no exception. Of course, I’ve already mentioned that you can override certain methods now to affect how queries execute. A number of options have moved around and...
I had the honor of being the first speaker at the new OKC SharePoint Users Group ( OKCSUG ) last night. Wendy Schopf did a great job organizing the location and event and there was a pretty decent turnout. I’m very excited to see the SharePoint...
Since I’m talking about Enterprise Search tonight at OKCSUG , I thought I would write up a quick post on the steps you need to follow in order to get People Search working in SharePoint 2010. The critical piece of course is getting the User Profile...

Maybe you hadn’t noticed, but talking about Search is my favorite topic in SharePoint (with ECM closely following it). :) This is why I am so excited about the new features we are seeing in Enterprise Search. Wildcards and built in refinement...
I am pretty passionate about Enterprise Search and with MOSS 2007 I saw customers really struggle because wildcard search was not offered out of the box and most of the web parts in Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.WebParts are sealed. Luckily, the...
I had a great time speaking again at Tulsa TechFest 2009. I gave my intro talk on Enterprise Search again, but this time I updated it to talk about features upcoming in SharePoint 2010. My slides are attached at the bottom of this post. ...
I attended numerous Search sessions at SPC09 and one thing that I was excited to see is there have been a few improvements in the keyword syntax that will pretty much eliminate the need to use Full Text SQL queries any longer. In fact, the impression...
