From a SharePoint End User’s perspective, it’s hard trying to figure out the best ways to expose information through graphics in SharePoint. SharePoint lists don’t offer color coding and other visualization effects. Sure, you can use Excel Services and KPIs if you’ve spent the big bucks for the Enterprise version to do a little graphic enhancement, but what about those of us who still need more complex visualization capabilities?

HTML Calculated Columns to the rescue! Christophe Humbert from Path to SharePoint has been working for over a year on solutions that can be implemented at the site level using the calculated column along with the Content Editor Web Part. He is giving a live online workshop on Tuesday, November 3rd to roll out his new solutions.

Visualizing Information in SharePoint is an entry level workshop for SharePoint Site Administrators and Power Users interested in creating graphic effects to enhance their SharePoint sites. No experience is required other than the desire to implement the solutions in your own production environement once the workshop is completed.

This live online workshop will give you the keys to mastering an out of the box method for creating visual effects in SharePoint. No need to be a SharePoint expert. No need for SharePoint Designer or server side tools, all is done using the OOTB features. All solutions can be implemented with Site Manager level permissions in the SharePoint 2003 and 2007 environments.

Examples showcased in this two hour workshop include:

• Traffic lights for issues lists
• Progress bars for tasks lists
• Color coding (text or background) by category
• Text effects (bold, blink, scroll)

The techniques presented apply to both SharePoint 2003 and SharePoint 2007 (WSS and MOSS).

If you need the resources and techniques needed to take your site to the next level, this workshop is for you. Read more at the workshop registration page, or register below.
