• MikeT49 MOSS Publishing Site

  We have a site implemented that contains a Pages library with multiple pages. The Pages library has a workflow associated that handles the "Publish major version" event. My issue is that in some instances, we are looking to have the workflow event defined at the page level. However, SharePoint is preventing this from allowing multiple "Publish Major" workflows. My question is WF related but may be better answered elsewhere. U ...Show All

• KCH Beta2 - CallExternalMethod vs InvokeMethod activity

  The new CallExternalMethod replaces the Beta1 InvokeMethod activity I see. But a significant change is that the new one serializes all objects passed to the external method. Beta1 did not do that. I'd prefer to make that optional, allowing me to pass by reference a la Beta1. Is there any way to do this Riley To implement pass by ref in this case, I'm both marking as Serializable and implementing ICloneable. ...Show All

• Chrisfquinn Problems with state persistence and timer services

  Hi, I've experimented with adding the SQL state, timer and tracking services to the Lab1 sample step 4 (the expense report approval workflow). The tracking service works fine, but it seems that the state and timer services get the engine stuck on the ListenForManagerApproval activity. If I disable the state and timer services the workflow unfolds as expected. I use the (really cool) Workflow Monitor sample to view the results, and the progress ...Show All

  I installed and validated Windows Vista 5270 today (Jan 2, 2006). When I tried to load Media Center I got the message "This trial version has expired and can no longer be used."

Are there any other programs in 5270 that share this problem, and will we be getting updated ve ...Show All
