Sharepoint 2003 Development Course Outline
Author: Tom Ruden, Instructor
1: Introduction to Web Parts for Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies
This module explains the concepts behind Web Parts, which are a type of ASP.NET server control. Unlike standard ASP.NET controls, which are added to Web form pages by programmers at design time, Web Parts are added to Web Part Zones on Web Part Pages by users at run time.
2: Adding Web Parts to Pages
This module explains how to add Web Parts to pages. Web Parts are componentized Web page elements that allow developers to create modular Web sites. Actions such as closing and deleting Web Parts will be explained in detail. This unit also introduces how to modify Web Part Pages and set Web Part properties.
3: Using Web Part Templates in Visual Studio .NET
This module explains how to use Web Part templates in Visual Studio .NET. Since Web Parts are ASP.NET custom controls, Microsoft Visual Studio .NET provides an excellent environment for creating and debugging Web Parts. This unit also introduces the Visual Studio .NET Web Part Library templates for both C# and Visual Basic .NET.
4: Web Parts as ASP.NET Custom Controls
Creating Web Parts is a variation on the process of creating ASP.NET custom controls. To create effective Web Parts, it is important to understand the similarities and differences between Web Parts and other ASP.NET custom controls.
5: Connecting Web Parts
This module explains how to connect Web Parts. The Web Part infrastructure provides rich support for communication between Web Parts. Developers can use standard interfaces to create Web Parts that can exchange information with each other.
6: Packaging and Deploying Web Parts
This module explains how to package and deploy Web Parts using administrative tools provided with Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services.
7: Web Part Security
Microsoft ASP.NET 1.1 enables Web applications to operate in a partially trusted environment. This module describes how Windows SharePoint Services implements custom security permissions and policy files.
8: Exploring the Windows SharePoint Services Object Model
In this module, you will use Visual Studio .NET to program the Windows SharePoint Services object model, which is integrated with Microsoft ASP.NET. This enables developers to program the Windows SharePoint Services object model in a Microsoft Visual Studio .NET environment to customize Web Parts for use in a Windows SharePoint Services deployment.
9: Developing Web Parts Using Microsoft FrontPage 2003
This module explains how to modify and present live data from a range of sources, including XML, to build rich interactive data-driven Web sites using Microsoft Office FrontPage 2003.
10: Creating Code in SharePoint
11: SharePoint Content and Office 2003 Integration
Lab: SharePoint Content
12: Introduction to Visual Studio Team System
This unit provides an overview of the software development lifecycle and the Visual Studio Team System tools that support each job role through the tracks of the software development lifecycle. The unit also details the workshop-wide scenario that provides the context for lab activities.
13: Setting Up an Application Development Project
This unit provides an overview of the planning track (project setup) of a software application development project. The unit also describes the key tasks that the project managers perform during the planning track by using Visual Studio Team System tools.
14: Designing an Application
This unit provides an overview of the planning track (design) of a software application development project. The unit also describes the key tasks that the infrastructure architects and solution architects perform during the planning track by using Visual Studio Team System tools.
15: Building an Application
This unit provides an overview of the building track of a software application development project. The unit also describes the key tasks that the developers perform during the building track by using Visual Studio Team System tools.
16: Stabilizing an Application
This unit provides an overview of the stabilizing track of a software application development project. The unit also describes the key tasks that the testers perform during the stabilizing track by using Visual Studio Team System tools.
17: Deploying an Application
This unit provides an overview of the deployment track of a software application development project. The unit also describes the key tasks that are performed in this track by using Visual Studio Team system tools.
