Is it possible to add a note board or other web parts to a Custom List? I would like to be able to have comments on list items.
any particular reason you don't want to use a discussion board? That's it's entire purpose.
Create a data view webpart for your list. This webpart will display one item at a time, so you have to filter this dataview webpart by Item ID using querystring. The page on which you will deploy this dataview webpart will also have noteboard webpart. Comments given here will stick to that particular item which will be displayed in dataview based on Item ID.

I have a requirement in office online 365 in which following things are needed.
Calendar list with custom field "Events", type is choice (General,Marriage,Birthday)
Need to create a dropdown in which above field's value should bind.
When user select "General" then only General events should display, birthday and marriage should not display.
Main thing view should be only calendar and I have tried sharepoint list filter and list view webpart but calendar view is not supported.
Any help would be appreciated.
SharePoint OOB Features does not provide filter with calendar control. You need to implement custom code for the same.
Just use a self-referential calendar overlay -- create a view with a filter on the same calendar - then when creating the overlay, reference the current calendar list and the view with the filter -- give it a color and a name.. You may have to hit the resolve button to get it to find the newly created view...
I have a default webpart in SP where elements of list are shown.
The problem is that elements are displayed vertical (one below other) and I need to make them horizontal (in one line). Where and how I can customize webpart template? Browsing webpart in SharePoint Designer doesn't help me.
Add a DataForm Webpart to your page using SharePoint Designer. You can modify XSLT (or use Drag and Drop) to change the look and alignment of elements in the list.

I created a dataview webpart in designer and have two different groupings. I enabled the grouping headers so they show up in my webpart. The issue I am having is that I want to make the first grouping visible on the first page (or other pages) so people then use the expand/collapse functionality to view other info. When I select display all items option in the paging functionality, the webpart breaks. Please help.

The second problem I am having is how to trigger the Validate Function.
I am aware of two custom forms for adding data to a sharepoint list. One is created using The Dataview Webpart in Sharepoint Designer and the other is created using the List Form Webpart in Sharepoint Designer.
I have a DataFormWebPart I created using Sharepoint Designer Insert Dataview ->Insert Selected Fields as New Item Form. This gives Save and Cancel buttons at the end of the form. How do I intercept the Save button event?
I found one solution but it only works with the NewForm page that has OK Cancel Buttons. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/sharepoint/Control_validation.aspx
You'll have to use an event handler if you want to validate the state of multiple fields. You can use the ItemAdding/ItemUpdating events if you want to cancel an item which is being added/updated.
properties.Cancle = true;
properties.ErrorMessage = "Your validation message.";

can you add query strings into the formula box for validation?
e.g. like this:
^[a-zA-Z]{2}[0-9]{6}[A-Za-z]{1}$
which validates against a national insurance number.
sharepoint says the column must = true,
so could I enter something like
[column name] = ^[a-zA-Z]{2}[0-9]{6}[A-Za-z]{1}$
I think you are trying to build a tool like this one called SharePoint Form Validation.
If so, take a look at this blog: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointtechnology/HA101054791033.aspx?pid=CH100650061033
Hope this helps!
