Here’s a quick video about adding a search connector into Windows Explorer – really cool feature I’ve only just discovered. Probably because I spent too much time buried in Visual Studio writing CAML and C#. Anyway, here it is – enjoy! 🙂 Update: I forgot to point out that the Search Connector in Windows is […]

Out of sheer curiosity and boredom, I’ve decided to have a poke at the huge query that is provided in the developer dashboard and shows up for nearly every page you load in SharePoint that has something to do with List Items. The query in particular is the one that starts ‘DECLARE @DocParentRefForRF’, and when […]
