The documents open up differently depending upon the views that are available. In “Explorer View” the documents open in a web explorer and in “All Documents” view the documents open up with the default word processing program…Word. We would like for the files in “All Documents” to open up in explorer. Does anyone have an idea as to how this can be done.

I have a question for you... Our division use a Sharepoint site for the past 2-3 years, which I manage Recently a "discussion board" was created. Some think that if the users profile were removed (anonymous) we would get better or more honest feedback from them... I already start playing with the view setting and manage to get this done but as soon as someone will click on "view property" the user name will show again. I would like to hear you on this... How would you set that up ? Do you see a value of hiding the user profile ? Best practices ... Many thanks for getting back to me Best regards Hello Dan,

very interesting topics …
I have a question for you…
Our division use a Sharepoint site for the past 2-3 years, which I manage
Recently a “discussion board” was created.
Some think that if the users profile were removed (anonymous) we would get better or more honest feedback from them…
I already start playing with the view setting and manage to get this done but as soon as someone will click on “view property” the user name will show again.
I would like to hear you on this…
How would you set that up ?
Do you see a value of hiding the user profile ?
Best practices …

Many thanks for getting back to me
Best regards

I had an idea about Alert Feature in SharePoint. But I'm not intrested, Because most of the users not ready to use that one because they need to do that depending on desire of the person (Going to actions menu and then alert and selecting the options. It is some what lengthy if want to for desired posts). It is better If We do like, what in our EnduserSharePoint Site consists , So that user can simply uses that one directly. So please suggest me, what I need to do, if I want that requirement. Thanks, Rao. Hi Lewis,

It’s available in the Actions menu: Actions > Alert Me. The options available to you are the following: Only send me alerts when: ——— All changes New items are added Existing items are modified Items are deleted Send me an alert when: ——— Anything changes Someone else changes a post Someone else changes a post created by me Someone else changes a post last modified by me They can be immediate, daily summary, or weekly summary.

Perhaps in the next series I'll cover that. For now, we are concentrating on the end user who may not have control over his/her environment for installing CK. Great additional ideas from everyone!

Be making a blog where everybody can post and create three categories (looking for, for sale, for free) people can advertise their own stuff. They can add pictures and other employees can ask questions or even place a bid. Probably not suitable in every organisation, but if the company has the right culture it's a nice 'extra' to the intranet.
