Office 2003 Dev
I bet you thought this was going to be a post about the spiffy new Content Controls and all of the spiffy new scenarios they give us when we bind them to a custom XML file in the new docx file format.
Well, nope, I'm not even going to mention that. Instead, I'm going to post about another option that can help if you need to generate a document from XML data with repeating nodes...

If you've heard me speak over the past 6 months, you've probably heard me mention the smart client solution we built with Office System (complete with PAG blocks, Outlook Add-ins, VSTO, XML, and more). It was a hard proof of concept to pull off in the time we had, but we did it and now you get all of the source code!

This is the second of two posts about the demos that I gave at the Office Developer Conference. Its got lots of untested sample code for mapping schemas, creating xml lists and importing InfoPath forms from SharePoint.
Update: added some bug fixes to the list creation code

Thanks to everyone who stayed late in the day on Friday to catch my talk on Office Solution Architecture. I really appreciate the fact that you guys had planes to catch, movies to watch, and headaches (from 3 straight days of raw data fed into your brains) and you still sat through an hour of me yammering away on Office :^)

I need to finish my presentations for the Office Developer Conference next week here in Seattle but instead I'm procrastinating by browsing through the other presentations. I'm seriously debating leaving my office for three straight days (unheard of) and spending the 2nd through 4th camped out at Microsoft taking in all of that Office goodness. There's so much content here...

Thanks again to those of you who dragged yourselves out of bed to hear me speak at Envision! This post has a list of links that I made reference to in the presentation along with a description of what I'm linking to...

This post explains how our editor and Office System handyman, Phil, went from a CSV to a well defined XML document and schema in 5 minutes without leaving Office System and without writing a single line of code!

I've been thinking about big impact things technology savvy folks at large organizations can do without having to pull out the heaving hitting (and billing) IT department. I think SharePoint is a huge win here (and quite a liberating tool). From something as simple as creating a group calendar to something as complex as a forms gathering/reporting engine, you get it all out of the box...
