SharePoint 2007 + Office 2010

Posted on by

1) Word 2010 enables drag and drop upload

While using the Upload Multiple Documents menu from the actions menu in a library. I noticed that this page was transformed into a drag and drop enabled upload container.

You can simply select the files you want to upload en drag them into the page.

After pressing the OK button all the documents were uploaded.

The free Office 2010 beta version is still available for downloading, check my previous post for more information

Nice to have if you ask me!

2) Word 2010 cannot open a document from SharePoint

1. Open up Internet Explorer
2. Click Tools

Add DLL to GAC using C#

Posted on by

Reference the system.EnterpriseServicess assembly to your project. 


using System.EnterpriseServices.Internal;

public void Update(DirectoryInfo folder_GAC)
{
  //check if folder containing new dll files exists
  if(folder_GAC.exists){
    //add each dll found in this folder to the Global Assembly Cache
    foreach (FileInfo dll in folder_GAC.GetFiles("*.dll")) 
    {
      //instantiate a new Publich object and install the dll
      Publish objpublish = new Publish();
      objpublish.GacInstall(dll.FullName);
    }    
  }
}

remove an assembly from the GAC can be done by using the GacRemove(string name) method.

Happy 2010, which means Outlook 2007 -> 2010

Posted on by

Microsoft Office 2010 won't be released untill june 2010, but the beta is already available, for free. I took the liberty to download the new Office child from http://bit.ly/2GWWj8 and installed it on my laptop.

Post Installtion Information to read
Microsoft posted a short list of Frequently asked questions about 2010 and the installation, you can read here: http://bit.ly/2K6MlL

Upgrade or Side-to-side installation
I didn't want to loose my installed 2007 version so I choose the customize button instead of the upgrade button.Then changed the settings to co-exist and finally changed the installation folder to C:\program files\Office2010 instead of C:\program files\Office.After several seconds the instalation was completed and I needed to reboot windows.

Outlook 2007 and 2010 cannot run side by side. This is also the fact for Groove 2007 and his 2010 versions called ‘SharePoint Workspace’.
