Can anyone tell me the difference between these 2 types of document library icons? As far as I can tell, one was created in 2010 and the other 2013 maybe?
This one is the PowerPivot data librabry, in default it let you preview documents in PowerPivot. Second one is standard doc lib.

I'm trying to find a way to automatically add version number to a word document that is created in sharepoint 2016. We had the label solution before but now that is deprecated and i really can't find anything on the internet on how to fix the issue.
We had this solution before
How can I include value of sharepoint's version column in a word document?
But that is depricated in 2016.
Anyone got any other simple solution?
Was wondering of fixing a webhook and using it togheter with azure functions. But for such a small thing it seems so unecessary.
I see many examples of using UpdateListItems to update a SharePoint list but I'm unable to find an example of using that technique within an SSIS package script component. The SharePoint List Destination object is not satisfying my needs because it will not let me update the "Modified By" column.

Mike

The MSDN web site has some very good examples of what I was trying to accomplish. I adapted them to meet my needs. Not sure why the site didn't appear when I was googling, but I'm sure it had to do with what terms I used.
I'm using advanced sort for a date view web part to set up a 3 part hierarchy. One of the fields is #Meeting_x0020_Name. The # sign returns all attributes for the context node, which gives me something like 3;#2014 2nd Quarter Meeting.
I don't want to display 3;# but only meeting name. How would I do that?
I'm not using code, but only the built in functions in SP.
Use this formula:
substring-after(#Meeting_x0020_Name,'#')
Unfortunately, I don't think this is going to be possible with out-of-the-box web parts in SharePoint 2010. Sorting is a bit limited already in 2010 an there is nothing built into the out-of-the-box web parts to allow you to parse out the meeting name. You may need to consider a custom solution if this is a requirement.
I have a basic knockoutjs project loading data from a SharePoint 2013 list scenario. Getting data and displaying data is easy, the problem that I'm running into is on the edit mode displaying the proper control. Everything should not be a textbox. This means the people picker control to dropdownmenus to calendar controls.
MSFT has some pretty good documentation on using the client side people picker control here"http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj713593.aspx
The problem that I have is calling this control inside my viewmodel.
Setting the value of the control doesn't look difficult courtesy of this blog post: http://www.sharepointcolumn.com/sp2013-setting-people-picker-value-in-newform-aspx/
I attempted to looking into computed values, but that doesn't seem to work. Does anyone have a blog post that I skipped over? The closest related post that I can find: http://yetanothersharepointblog.wordpress.com/2012/12/11/working-with-sharepoint-lookup-columns-in-knockout-js/
Lastly since it seems that I'm the only one doing this, does anyone think that I should not be reinventing the wheel with my forms and should just link each item to the appropriate SharePoint list item in edit or display view? I suppose that would be easier.
From a SharePoint Professional to another, I would highly recommend you to do that.
Just redirect the user to the item edit/display item page an let SharePoint take the leash of how to handle UI form elements.
Because, assume that you implement your custom form, what if the user decides to add one more site column to the list? Will you update your code to support another field?
From my personal experience with the beast I've come to the conclusion that structural implementation over already existent functionality tends to go wrong.
Also, if you have some kind of listing of items custom made and you want to provide editing, try to do something opening a pretty SP.UI.ModalDialog, its elegant and you use the sharepoint to do the work for you.
But it's just an advise.
I'm not sure this is possible, but figured I´d give it a shot. First a few pre-requeistes and environment details:
I´m using SharePoint 2010, SharePoint
Designer 2010, VS 2010
I want to create as little code as
possible, preferably, create it all via UI or Designer
use out of the box components as much
as possible
Here is What I want to do:
Have a custom list with custom columns (easy part)
Create a webpart with an edit interface to select a single item from this list
This same webpart when visible would display the contents of this selected item in a given layout
I know I can do this creating a custom web part and code it all from scratch, I guess my main question is, is there a way to do this with less code and more out of the box components in SP2010. If not, I guess I'm left with lots of C# code.
Any tips, or pointers in this direction will be most welcome. Thanks in advance.
I think what you're looking for is the Data Form Web Part.
Unfortunately, I can't find any good tutorials for 2010, but hopefully the steps should be similar to setting it up in 2007.
Thanks all for the update. In the end, i had to create quite a bit of code to get this to work:
created a web part that enumerates
the content type,
creates a light box that has a picker
then stores the ID of the content in a column
Not the easiest way,but the only way I could get it working. Thanks again!
