Switching from Claims to Not Claims with SharePoint 2010 Working with a client the other day, I had the need to take a web application from one SP install to another. Normally, no big deal.

Visual Studio SharePoint Packaging / Deployment So there I was, just working away and minding my own business when Visual Studio 2010 decided to throw a very nasty curve ball at me.

Using DAPI to Secure MOSS Data Saw this very interesting post from Dr. Z’s blog located here [http://bit.ly/cqnNQe] about using the Windows Data Protection API inside of SharePoint to secure data. It is a little thick for me since I’m not truly a developer (yet), but anytime I can see a
SharePoint 2010 Development is (Slightly) Better Let’s be real for a sec. Developing on the SharePoint 2007 platform is more than a bit of a pain. Despite all of MS’s and other folks efforts, it is just complicated. It is basically impossible to reliably and cleanly develop for SharePoint 2007 and not have SharePoint
