It’s About Time! Outlook 2010 Will Support Multiple Exchange Accounts
I have always wanted to use multiple Exchange accounts within Outlook without setting up multiple profiles. It looks like Microsoft is set to make life a bit easier for me and 1000s of others.
Check out the news from the Outlook team’s blog.
One caveat is that Outlook 2010 will only support 3 Exchange accounts. Still, 3 is better than one…for lots of things…like say, chocolate chip cookies.
A Must Have Reference for Building SharePoint 2007 Master Pages
If you have been involved in branding a SharePoint 2007 site with a custom skin, then you know how important it is to understand SharePoint’s underlying CSS structure.
I ran across this post at Heather Solomon’s blog:
She has a done a great job of explaining each CSS class defined in SharePoint’s core CSS files. What I like best is that she posted screenshots of the GUI elements that affected by each CSS class.
We recently completed a project where, among building some great web parts, we branded a SharePoint site. Not only did we a create master page design for the Content Pages (the pages intended for site visitors to see), we also applied a branded master page to the Application Pages. This isn’t easy as the application pages are any page that reside in a SharePoint sites _Layouts folder. For some reason, the SharePoint team didn’t think these pages would need to be skinned as SharePoint does not support this scenario out of the box. We found a work around at Graphical Wonder:
The discussion on Shane Perran’s site of application.master pages is very informative and is a must read for anyone looking to buils a branded site on SharePoint.
