Reader Reviews
Microsoft has been working on SharePoint for quite a while. It's now in it's third release, and as is often the case with Microsoft it has finally reached the point where it is becoming quite useful. The software is now available in two versions, Windows SharePoint Services and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS). One problem with SharePoint is trying to determine just what it is. It's almost like you need to install it, work with it, and then decide if you want it. But basically (in my opinion) SharePoint is a server based (requires Windows Server 2003 or later, SQL Server, the .NET Framework, and IIS) package that provide for data storage and content management of typically Office like files. Among other things it allows multiple people to work on one project which can be a Word document, a system that tracks help desk problems, or any of a number of other collaborative systems. Ms. Williams has been working with SharePoint since its first release in 2001. In this book she starts from the idea that you need to find one target application to use to convince the company that SharePoint is a good idea. From there she leads on to a mixture of applications, technical aspects, how to's and everything else you need to get a good understanding of SharePoint.
