Book Description

SharePoint is clearly one of the coolest things to come down the pike in a long time…(and) I don't think you can possibly read Microsoft SharePoint without immediately wanting to build something to address problems that you are already dealing with. — William Ryan, KnowDotNet.com Team Member

If you need a thorough introduction as to what SharePoint Portal Server has to offer to your organization or clients, I'd recommend you pick up a copy of this book. — Lamont Harrington, Lamont Harrington's Blog

Microsoft SharePoint: Building Office 2003 Solutions provides you with all the information you need to design and deploy business solutions based on Microsoft SharePoint technologies. Author Scot Hillier defines the business case and scenarios for Microsoft SharePoint technologies, and he also reviews the installation, configuration, and administration of business solutions based on SharePoint technologies. He provides programming instruction, guidance, and examples for custom Web parts and solutions built on SharePoint technologies.

Focused on getting you started quickly with SharePoint products and technologies, each chapter provides hands-on exercises that emphasize basic ideas or demonstrate simple features. Unlike some technical books, this guide isn’t intended to be simply a reference that you access primarily through the index, and the material presented in each chapter builds upon that offered in previous chapters.
