Download Course OutlineThis course provides you with the knowledge required by a developer in order to customise Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services v3 using both SharePoint Designer 2007 and Visual Studio 2005/8.
The course will recap the ways in which SharePoint can be customised from the browser, and then consider more in-depth customisation. You will be given a general overview of the architecture of WSS, including an introduction to the available development tools and their functionality.
You will learn to use SharePoint Designer to customise a SharePoint site, including editing its master page and CSS styles as well as creating new lists and customising them, and creating new workflows.
You will then move on to using Visual Studio and the Visual Studio Extensions for WSS. You will create a custom site definition, and learn how to use features and elements within WSS to construct a list definition with an event receiver. You will create new web parts, and see how to connect them to each other and how to add AJAX behaviour to them. You will investigate the SharePoint object model, and the WSS web services that can connect external applications to WSS. You will create custom field types and use them to create a content type. Lastly, you will create a new workflow and a new action for SharePoint Designer, using Visual Studio.
Note: WSS is a subset of Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS), and all of the material on this course is also applicable to MOSS developers.
The course assumes 6 months development experience with ASP.NET v2.0, or equivalent knowledge (e.g. QAASPNET2), plus end-user knowledge of SharePoint (e.g. QASPEU07/QASPSA07).
