Project Professional and Server 2010 – Feature Highlights

Highlights about Project Professional 2010 and Project Server 2010. that Microsoft worked under for Project 2010 was:  Unified Project and Portfolio Management  Enhanced Collaboration and Reporting  Simple and Intuitive User Experience  Scalable and Connected Platform Even though I tried to separate Professional from Server for this list, many features and capabilities are now available on Server that we would traditionally think are Professional only.

MOSS Search Stopped working

Image
One fine day,one customer mailed me that he is not getting any search result."not even a single search result"..well it was more than a panic to me as day after we had a project server training and ppl might use Search functionality alot to get their projects and documents. After hell lot of effort, finally I was able to find out the reason behind it. There may be many reasons to stop Moss search but in our case it was MS Security update in MOSS web server "MS08-068: Vulnerability in SMB could allow remote code execution" Basically,this security update stops client to log in in Server machine(so you can log in on any application outside server,but if you try to log in on same app inside MOSS server,it will not allow you to do so. Now,due to this patch,our search service account was not able to crawl( as access denied was occurring) .. to Fix this problem I published a paper as follows Search Crawl is not working in MOSS 2007 server Symptoms: whenever we try to crawl...

Dundas -Make custom data points and marker

Image
My client Kathy loves reporting and she can ask anything on report...well one day she asked me to change the data point to a line (big line..) and to be my surprise there is not automatic marker style in SSRS to make this happen...but thanks to her that she has given me license to Use dundas... well after trying it hard ..i found the way and it brought a smile on her face ... To implement this 1)Create a custom line image in mspaint and save this as a file in the folder where your report solution is located 2)Click on the series for which you want custom marker style ..select Data point and use marker image to locate the file which you have created 3)Use marker style none in data point --Marker style section... and you are done with custom marker

Image
well,dundas as I think gives you more option to make your charting life easy.To day I came across a problem in chart where client wanted to reduce the width of stack column..what the heck I thought (right away I thought that I need to enter few dummy values at x-axis with null data)...but wanted to give a try if dundas provide any mean to set it ..and yes it does ... as shown in image set the value of point width in series value ...you are done ..:)..I avoided to enter dummy points and then keep testing the width (saved my couple of hrs.)
