SharePoint Book Giveaway #1

Hey All!

Back in June I kind of re-launched this blog and had promised to giveaway a book back then! Duh! Never happened… no excuses…. I just could not do it….

So here I am again Smile

I am going to be giving away a book by way of draw on September 15 2010. This will be a SharePoint 2010 book for sure! All I ask of you to make it easier for me to draw your name is sign up for the newsletter here – that’s it!

I Am Speaking at SharePoint Conference in Singapore

Following on from my presentation at SharePoint Saturday Brisbane and SharePoint Saturday India this year, my submissions for Southeast Asia SharePoint Conference have been accepted!

I am super excited since both my sessions have been accepted and super super excited as I will be sharing the podium with Michael Noel (Authored Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Unleashed with Colin Spence) for one of the sessions.

By the way – this is the same book where I have contributed a chapter! Winking smile 

Ok, coming back to the Southeast Asia Conference…

I will be presenting the following sessions

It’s Saturday here in Australia and I am just back from one of the theme parks on the Gold Coast. I had a great day out with the family! However, the icing on the cake was the email I read this evening when waiting for one of the shows to start! The email was from the Microsoft Certification team –

“Congratulations on Your Microsoft Certification!”

Datasheet View Does Not Work in SharePoint 2010

This is a known and personally experienced issue (Tech Preview and Beta Builds as well) with Datasheet View not working in SharePoint if you have Office 2010×64 clients installed on your workstation.

Again this is one of the FAQ on the MSDN Forums and today I saw the solution posted on the thread, so comes this post for my reference and in case you experience this, then you know what is the solution to the issue.
