    Deploying an External List using Visual Studio 2010

    It has been a while since i made a blog post, this is due to the exam period. I have finished my internship at Real Dolmen successfully and from the 6th of September on I will be working at the ECM unit at Real Dolmen. So there will probably follow allot of blog posts. Today, i am going to explain you how to “make” an external list using code. Maybe you will say, why will you use code if you can do it by using the User Interface of SharePoint… Well it can be handy to know how to... 

    Adding SharePoint 2010 List using C#.Net

    Most of you will already be familiar with this subject, but i preferred to explain it anyway for those who dont. When you are working on a SharePoint project it can be useful to have a application (console application for example) which configures the server with only a few clicks. One of these steps is creating the necesary lists. I will start with creating a new console application (make sure you are working on your server) with Visual Studio 2010. Add references for the following assemblies: Both of them can be found inside the 14\ISAPI folder of your server.... 

    Business Connectivity Services in Sharepoint 2010

    Business Connectivity Services, in my opinion one of the best new features in SharePoint 2010. BCS makes it possible to implement data from other source into SharePoint 2010. For example you can get data from Microsoft CRM to show in a SharePoint List. Every changes you make to the data in SharePoint will also change in Microsoft CRM. So how does this work? It took me a while to get this to work, but basically it is pretty easy. Open Visual Studio 2010 and choose for the Sharepoint – Business Connectivity Data Model project. Remember, you can always use...

    Silverlight 3 and the MVVM design pattern part 2

    So if you followed my previous post you should be able to make a basic MVVM setup. In this post I will discuss how to switch between UserControls and how to handle “ClickEvents” since we can not put the ClickHandlers inside the codebehind file! This code has to be in the ViewModel file! To start let’s make a new UserControl into the View folder, I will name mine CarView.xaml After this make a new ViewMode, add a class file to the ViewModel folder and name it CarViewModel.cs. This class has to inherit from ViewModelBase so do not forget to add...
