• How to: Create a BCS Profile Page in SharePoint 2010

  I was working on updating my Search demo for #spshou and my BCS search results were really ugly.  I didn’t have a default action specified on my search results, nor did I have a profile page, so instead the search results would give me the BDC protocol...

• Deploying an External List via Feature using CAML #sp2010

  I’ve been talking a lot about external lists lately as you may know.  They are so easy to create with SharePoint Designer, but you wouldn’t really deploy them to production that way would you?  Of course not!  We need a feature.  At...

  I’m not privy to the NDA, so I got to look at some of the new SharePoint 2010 ( #sp2010 ) information for the first time with the Sneak Peak videos on the Microsoft site.  I’ll try not to just repeat information in the videos, but tell you what I...
