SP101 - Building SharePoint 2007 Applications

Duration

3 Days

Introduction

Elements of this syllabus are subject to change.

This three-day course focuses on the features in SharePoint 2007 that support application development and customization. Attendees will get a comprehensive introduction to the SharePoint development platform and will also be provided with an overview of the customization of SharePoint sites using tools such as SharePoint Designer 2007 and Visual Studio 2005.

Audience

This seminar is designed primarily for SharePoint developers and site designers. To get the most out of this seminar, attendees should have previous experience working with and customizing SharePoint 2003 sites – for those without that experience, we recommend our “What’s New in SharePoint 2007 for Business Users” seminar.

After completing this workshop, students will be able to:

  • The core features of the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 platform, and how developers can leverage its new ASP.NET 2.0 foundation.
  • How developers can use the important new list and library enhancements such as site columns and content types.
  • How to use SharePoint Designer 2007, including using it to customize sites with Master and Content Pages, Cascading Style Sheets and Site Themes.
  • How to work with ASP.NET controls and custom forms in SharePoint Designer.
  • How to build custom workflows using SharePoint Designer 2007.
  • How to build data-centric and reporting applications in Share- Point, using the improved Data View control in SharePoint Designer, and the Business Data Catalog in MOSS 2007.
