Guys
Is there any web-based gantt chart tool that can be setuped by team ourselves? I know there are a lot web-based Gantt chart tools(e.g. TeamGantt). But it seems they all requires you to store the data on their servers. Is there any tool that can be setup by teams ourselves and it can only be visible in our intranet?
I don't like desktop tools(e.g. OpenProj or GanttProject), because it's difficult to be shared in team members.
Thanks & BR,
Lin Mao
You may look at dhtmlxGantt, a JavaScript Gantt chart that can be added on a web page. It's open source (GPL) and allows you to create a customizable, interactive Gantt chart for your app.
(Disclaimer: I work for DHTMLX)
I would check jsGanttImproved, because it doesn't require any additional libraries and it is FREE.
sorry if the answer is too late but I've used two web based gantt charts:
jsGantt
Dojo framework + Dojox + dojox.gantt
You can google them easily. They will accept a JSON string with the tasks, resources and dependecies and draw your gantt chart.
Probably will need some coding to adjust to your environment.

I am quite new to MS Dynamics CRM, and I am working with 2011 on-prem version. I have a requirement where I have to use the in-line editable grid to update the data at one shot. But with some research and try, I figured out that it is not possible as "Out of Box" feature.
I tried finding code related to customized editable grid that can be used in CRM, but most of the time I ended up having a 3rd party control to be consumed. But I would like to understand and if possible build the code for the custom grid control for achieving the editable grid.
One approach could be developing a control out side the CRM and then adding it as addin and consume it. I have some thoughts but did not land up in any proper solution.
Is there anyone who can help me out in understanding/developing the custom grid control myself without using 3rd Party tools?
Thanks,
Ashfaq.
you can do this using silverlight or with jquery with HTML.
Does anyone knows a way to publish my PivotTables and PivotCharts made in Excel, Access, or PowerPivot 2010 to a web page and maintain the interactivity?
I know this was possible in Excel 2003, but cant find a way to do the same in Excel 2010 without having to use Sharepoint and Excel Services.
Any suggestion?
Thanks
In terms of PowerPivot based files this isn't possible.

The cheapest and easiest option would be to put the dataset in Azure or Azure Marketplace and have them query the data directly via the PowerPivot plugin. Other than that you can not maintain the interactivity of the pivot chart online. It's not part of your question but I would suggest taking a look at a http://www.highcharts.com/ or http://d3js.org/ implementation. You can interact with an example here:
http://www.highcharts.com/demo/pie-basic (click jsfidle)
If you get to the point where you can justify the cost of having powerful reports online you can take a look at http://spotfire.tibco.com/demos at our last company we had so many requests for pivot tables and their charts to be accessible online that we ended up having to buy a Spotfire license :/
Good luck!
I would like to use Visio to mockup a few ASP.NET interfaces that I can share with a client. I know I can create these using Visual Studio, but I would rather use a graphics tool if possible.
I have Visio 2007 that came with MS Office and I do not have any software or database templates. Does anyone know where I can find templates/stencils/shapes I can use for this?
If there are any other tools that I can use I'm open to that too. I'm leaning towards Visio because I already have it and know how to use it.
Thanks!
You can pull the parts from this PowerPoint template set: http://www.istartedsomething.com/20071018/powerpoint-prototype-toolkit-01/ and use them in Visio.
Visio 2010 comes with a really nice set of wireframe shapes, but you have to buy the Pro or Premium versions, as Standard doesn't come with them.
Previous versions of Visio had some Windows UI shapes, but I'm not sure which editions included them. They are usually located in the "Software" stencils sub-directory.
I've also got a smattering of downloads on my site that might augment your UI collection. Have a look here:

I need to display content from an OLAP cube in Sharepoint. This could be done using PerformancePoint Server but unfortunately Microsoft has decided to drop support for that product some time ago. Their plan is to integrate some of the functionality directly into the next version of Sharepoint instead. The problem is that I can't wait that long and it would not be wise to base the solution on abondoned software.
How can I solve this, should I use Excel Services and/or how can I do this?
How would you solve it?
With regards

Reporting Services 2008 integrated with sharepoint
One resource that I have found useful is this - and yes i would use Excel Services

Basically need to use SharePoint (because we promote MS yay!) as a content management system for an internet facing site.
How do I get rid of the default SharePoint look and feel and make it look like however I want it to?
I know the process involves creating a new masterpage with SharePoint Designer. However I prefer to code webpages rather than use a visual editor. Is this possible? Do I need knowledge of .NET?
Just check out ferrari.com for a very well made redesign of a SharePoint site.
Heather Solomon's Branding SharePoint series would be a good place to start. There's a lot you can do just with CSS, JS and HTML, but the most complete solutions (like Ferrari) require some pretty extensive customization with .NET and other SharePoint development techniques (features and delegate controls, in particular).
Your branding effort will be a lot easier if you only need to heavily brand the public-facing "publishing pages", from which you can remove most of the SharePoint-specific elements that make branding difficult.
Also, SharePoint Designer has a source view if you don't like the visual editor.
Yes it is possible to make it look like however you want it to (as you've seen from the Ferrari site). However to create that sort of site takes a lot of work.
Microsoft recommend the use of SharePoint Designer for 'designing' pages and layouts. However changing their behaviour almost always needs Visual Studio and development in .NET. You can largely avoid SharePoint Designer (which may worth considering as it can be a PITA) with an open source tool such as SPVisualDev. Use this with WSPBuilder for packaging your solutions (and avoid VSeWSS where possible).
Considering it sounds like you're just getting started, be aware this is a big topic with a reasonable learning curve. Read a good book on the topic such as Professional SharePoint 2007 Web Content Management Development: Building Publishing Sites with Office SharePoint Server 2007 by Andrew Connell. It takes you through most things you will encounter from the ground up.
I'm working my way through Real World Branding by Andrew Connell at the moment. It seems like a good demonstration, with code.
Plus the Heather Solomon articles as suggested by dahlbyk are always informative.
Just changing the theme, or creating a custom theme for the site, can go a long way towards making SharePoint look a lot better. It's also a lot less intensive then changing the master pages.

Example customization you can do with just CSS
Does the EULA allow you to disguise the fact that it's MS software?
Remember, you didn't buy the software, you're just paying for the privilege of using it.
