Recommended Reference Materials - Sharepoint

Hi David,
I think you should use dev NG for this type of questions (ex.:
microsoft.public.sharepoint.portalserver.development)

Anyway if you look for imformation on MOSS 2007 I do recommend thia link:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l.../cc303422.aspx

By typing "moss (and) Web-Based Applications" in search box you will get a
lot of article on this subject.

I hope you'll find there some answers.

Anna

I have a full list of SharePoint 2007 books and DVD training courses here.

http://wss.asaris.de/sites/walsh/Lis...V%20Books.aspx

The development books are concentrated in section B.

Otherwise check out the web casts and labs listed here

http://wss.asaris.de/sites/walsh/Lis.../AllItems.aspx

on the first page there's for instance a recent Hands-On lab for
developing applications on WSS 3.0 listed.

Thanks for the links Mike.

Do you think this is a good environment to host web based apps, and do you
have a preferred dev environment?

Hi Anna,

I did post to that NG as well, but answer (yet).

Do you think this is a good environment to host web based apps, and do you
have a preferred dev environment?

Thanks.
