CHM to ePub Converter Ever since I got my Kindle, I am using it more and more to do all kind of reading electronically. I use Calibre (@ calibre-ebook.com) as my one stop solution to eBook management. Recently I tried to convert CHM to eBook format, and found that it was rather difficult. Feature rich as it is, Calibre does not have a native CHM conversion function. One can extract the CHM file and feed it to Calibre, but I found it rather tidious and error prone. I also missed having a hierarchical Table of Contents, which are always present in CHM files. I just went ahead and created a converter for myself in C#. Here is the sample screenshot.
This is a simple code to create a SharePoint (MOSS) 2007 Publishing page with code. Hope this helps // Get the SPSite - getting the current site for examples sake SPSite cursite = SPContext.Current.Site; using (SPWeb curweb = cursite.OpenWeb()) { // Get the Pages library of the web SPList pagelist = curweb.Lists["Pages"]; //content type assigned to the pages library SPContentType contentType = pubSite.ContentTypes["ContentType Name"]; //page layouts for the content type PageLayoutCollection pageLayouts = pubSite.GetPageLayouts(contentType, true); Dictionary<string, PageLayout> dPageLayouts = new Dictionary<string, PageLayout>(); foreach (PageLayout pageLayout in pageLayouts) { dPageLayouts.Add(pageLayout.Title, pageLayout); } //page layout that is required for the new page PageLayout pageLayoutToUse = dPageLayouts["layoutName"]; //publishing web from the currently open web PublishingWeb pubWeb = PublishingWeb.GetPublishingWeb(curweb); //add a new page PublishingPage newPubPage = pubWeb.GetPublishingPages().Add("newPageName.aspx", pageLayoutToUse); //put what ever content you want in the page.

This is the collection of resources I have gathered over the course of my preparation for the Microsoft Exam 70-542. The primary reason for collection this information is that there is no comprehensive resource for this exam available on the net, unless one opts for a paid resources. After working more or less exclusively on SharePoint 2007 for last 2 years, I see no reason for me to go for paid resources.
This is a simple query to get file sizes from a sharepoint database. I know there are multiple ways of doing this, but I found this the easiest and also the fastest. SELECT [filename], SUM(CAST(( CAST(CAST(filesize AS DECIMAL(38, 2)) / 1024 AS DECIMAL(38, 2)) / 1024 ) AS DECIMAL(38, 2))) AS 'Size in MB' FROM (SELECT dirname + '/' + leafname AS [filename], size AS filesize, siteid, webid, extensionforfile FROM
Setting field values of a list item in SharePoint is easy. But when it comes to Multi-Choice fields, the code is a big different. The following code shows how values can be added to a multi-choice field. SPFieldMultiChoice choiceField = (SPFieldMultiChoice)myWeb.Fields["choiceFieldName"]; choiceField.Choices.Add("Value"); //Set PushChangesToLists to true if automatic update of List or Content types is required choiceField.PushChangesToLists = false; choiceField.Upate();
Sometimes it is necessary to create a Sharepoint Content Type by code, specially when batch creating content types. The following code snippet shows how a sharepoint content type can be created in C#. I have also included some not-so-simple field types like choice and lookup. using (SPSite p_site = new SPSite(urlToSite)) { using (SPWeb p_web = p_site.OpenWeb()) { SPContentType CustomContentType = new SPContentType(p_web.AvailableContentTypes["ParentContentType"], p_web.ContentTypes, "MyContentType"); // A string Field p_web.Fields.Add("NumberColumn",
