Hello Kelly;
I just saw your question in the MS SharePoint forum about 2010 Information Worker Demonstration and Evaluation Virtual Machine (SP1) Part C Corrupt?
I’m having the exact problem when extracting part A (have not tried C as I wanted to get A running first).
You go on to say that the part A that you downloaded works fine and although you did not say, I take it that it extracted OK for you and you successfully created the VHD.
Would you consider putting your working part A files on a DVD and sending it to me? I’ll pay all postage and even send you the blank DVD(s).
Thank you for your help,
Robert
Hi Robert,
I would love to, but I already moved on to creating my own SP1 demo as the IW demo was not populated with dummy content. Here is the link to the download site:

Hope this helps,

Hi Kelly
I was looking at your post and was wondering if you are still using the event reciever solution mentioned. http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointcustomizationprevious/thread/567b5ffe-f400-4626-856c-e2cbf9726332
I’m having problems with workflow starting using content organiser and found feature http://sp2010workflowfix.codeplex.com/ but this runs workflow under ‘System Account’.
Does your code also run under system account.. Here is more info http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointgeneralprevious/thread/4f4881ef-1a68-4d47-ba80-69504d179611
Appreciate your time
Hi Raj,
As this is a recurring MSFT issue, I escalated to them but they have not resolved it. Some have created a timer job to scan the destination library for new/changed content in order to trigger their workflow.
Hope this helps,
Kelly
Hi,
With reference to your Query on MDSN, i was am wondering is there a way to use synonms as you have queried in MSDN. In case you were able to crack it, please share how synomyous can be used

Not yet, but I am diving deeper into SharePoint 2013 and will keep you posted!
Hi Kelly –
Did you ever figure out how to prevent word wrapping for SharePoint Global Navigation?
I saw your post http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/d617a2d9-c1d1-4fb0-9700-d18c373245a0/top-navigation-bar-wraps-text?forum=sharepointgeneral
I’m having same issue and can’t quite figure out how to solve this problem.
Thanks
Hi Joe,
It required some CSS to adjust. Here is a link:

Hey Kelly, I saw one of your post on the MSDN “Developing Apps for SharePoint” forum. I’m also developing SharePoint Online apps. I’ve looking to team up with someone on upcoming app development. Would you be interested? If so, email me back and we can chat further.

Thanks for reaching out Jeffrey. At this time I am tapped out with projects, but will reach out as appropriate. Best of luck!

Hi Kelly,
It’s been a few years, but I ran across your code on how to create calendar views using SharePoint jsom recently. I’m attempting to do the same thing programmatically, but it looks like the calendar won’t load properly unless the title and subtitle fields are assigned values for monthly, weekly, and daily views. Did you ever figure out how to access these objects using jsom or even modify existing calendar views instead of creating new? Thank you.

Hi Jim,
I would look at the SharePoint REST API. You could call an create or update: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/sp-add-ins/working-with-lists-and-list-items-with-rest
Take care,
Kelly
