What I'm left with is simply the titles of all the Purchasing items from the various Purchasing lists in my site collection. Do you know why this happens? Up until this point, I can replicate everything you are doing in the tutorial. Thanks, Darren. Dear Laura:

I have managed to get your roll-up solution working but have the following observation: Despite creating a custom content type for use with my custom list, the roll-up includes items from all content types inthe site collection UNLESS the data query within the "current data source" includes a column which is unique to the list I am rolling up. This suggests to me that the roll-up process included all lists, regardles of their content type(s), thank contain all the columns specified in the data query. So, for instance, if I only include the title in the datasource query (and obviously the DVWP) I get everything from the site collection which has a "Title" column in it. I hope this makes sense? Am I doing something wrong. I hve been struggling with this for a couple of weeks now and still don't feel I understand what is happening. Many thanks Tim Hi Laura and thanks for these articles.

On my top level site, I will add in all quotes by all customers. I have created another site which is called a customer site. What I want to be able to do is show the data from the main quote log on the customer site, but only the quotes that belong to that specific customer. Can this be done? Iain Hi Laura

I want to do something like this, but just a little different.

On my top level site, I will add in all quotes by all customers.

I have created another site which is called a customer site. What I want to be able to do is show the data from the main quote log on the customer site, but only the quotes that belong to that specific customer.

Can this be done?

Thanks. This would serve very well in our site but unfortunately I get a "The server returned a non-specific error when trying to get the data source. Check the format and content of your query and try again." error. Went through your steps one by and made sure I was doing exactly the same things. Slightly frustrating. Great screencast again Laura!

All three sub sites have different security. If user logs in with access to all three sub sites it works fine. But if user doesnt have access to any one of them, it throws following error: "Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource. I dont know if i done something wrong in the web part configuration in SP Designer or DataView is not able to handle security trimiing ? is there any way i can render security trimming thru DataView Web Part. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. I am rendering articles from three publishing sub sites together into one DataView Web Part thru linked resources.
