Hi,
use the following syntax in the group expression!
=IIF(Fields!AUDIT_TYPE.Value="(P)BA","BA",Fields!AUDIT_TYPE.Value)
I hope, this 'll resolve the issue.

Some suggestions for new LCDS versions - and some praise
- ability add audio to other pages so courses can have narration
- ability to add own logo for branding (important for company LMS)
- less rigidity in graphic placement on simple pages
- a simple PDF document/handout that explains the various templates and interactions so that a SME could know their options. It could be created from the Help content.
- best help files I have seen - they don't just explain how to use the software, they are a course on Instructional Design
- simple interface but fully featured - I am asking my (large) company to consider using it - if it runs ok on our LMS

Maybe one other suggestion - a small test course would be useful for showing compatibility with an LMS. Something we could hand over to the IT department that would run the project and LMS through their paces and prove SCORM compliance and compatibility for them.
Thanks for being open to suggestions.

How about the ability to href images so they can pop-up or zoom in a new window?This is actually a great suggestion! Sometimes I want users to be able to view images without moving away from the corrent window.

I know this reply is about a year late but I also had this problem and the only way I could overcome it was to manually change the presentation.css file which will be under the course/platform/styles directory in your course directory. Changing it is not that hard, open it in notepad or some other text editor, search for font-size and you will see the font sizes for all the headings (h1 through h4) the normal text (p), and the lists (li). If you just want to increase the normal text change the setting after the p{ Although once you have done this you will probably also want to increase the heading sizes as they will only be the same or smaller as your paragraph text.
Normally I would not encourage messing around with a css file but in this case it seems to be the only option. I would make a copy of it before you change it to be on the safe side.

Dear Rennie:
I changed the presentation.css as per your advice, and nothing happens. Is there any other thing we have to look for?

Info about incoming worms?
Over the last few weeks, I suddenly started receiving hundreds of emails from Forefront about "Win32/Mydoom.L@mm" in incoming mail. In the Forefront for Exchange console, I go to the Incidents viewer and it lists the sender IP. I blacklisted that IP in our firewall, but the mail keeps coming. Here is a copy of one report (there are lots more like it):

Hi,
Thank you for the post.
"I go to the Incidents viewer and it lists the sender IP. I blacklisted that IP in our firewall, but the mail keeps coming"- what is your network topology? please check the firewall log to verify that sender IP address is really blocked by firewall.

We have a hardware firewall in front of the Exchange server. It is set to log any attempt by "50.39.138.106" to connect and it has logged none.
That implies that Forefront does not actually have the actual connecting IP address in the "Sender IP" field.
Is there any way to find out more information about the blocked message (such as full headers)?

Add Items in Listbox Infopath
Hi,
I have a listbox where i populate values from sharepoint list column. The values in the listbox is either 0 or 1. Now i would need to get the count of the number of 1s inside the listbox
Is there a way to do it
Thanks

Hi,
You have to query the content of your data source.
To do this, add a field in your form. Here you can put a formula on the field by clicking on "fx". You can put a "sum" or a "count" formula.
Here you have to select "Insert a field or a formula" and select your secondary data source (who is connected to you sharepoint list).
You can also filter your data source when you select.
Hope this helps.

Lack of choice is clearly the biggest problem with Windows 8 and Microsoft in general right now.
I'm not as old as some of the old timers here, but I've used every version of Windows since version 3.1. My favorite was always Windows 2000. It combined the stability of NT with much of the flexibility of Win 9x while still looking, well, professional. XP attempted to repackage 2000 into a more consumer friendly form, and for the most part it was successful. But I found many of the new "features" of XP frustrating or annoying. The gaudy interface (in my opinion only - I mean no offense to those who liked it), hiding the Windows directory by default, the unintuitive "categorized" control panel, and even things like Security Center which came later - a nice feature for the casual users, but one that I saw as needless hand-holding for myself. But none of those things bothered me like Metro does, because they could all be changed or disabled. It is my computer, after all, and in the end, I'm the one who should decide how to use it. If I wanted XP to look and act like Win2k, I could do so, while still benefitting from the improved compatibility and other new features of XP. At the same time, I could also recommend XP to more casual PC users.
That choice has been removed with Metro, which is what frustrates so many of us. Forget about the pros and cons of the interface itself. Forget, even, that Metro is clearly a tablet interface and putting it on a desktop is a questionable thing to do in the first place, as well as a horribly inefficient use of the large amount of monitor real estate we have these days. If there was that simple option to install Windows 8 without Metro, or a way to enable/disable it after install (that means completely disable it, not just hide it), then most complaints about it would cease. Those who enjoy Metro on their desktops could have it, and could continue to provide feedback on how to improve it. Those who want nothing to do with it could go without it. Just as those who hated XP's default interface could change it, or those who don't want to run Aero in Win7 don't have to.
It would seem to me that the problem is not so much Metro as it is the lack of choice. The lack of control over a person's own PC. The removal of functionality with no way to restore it. Choice is important, because we all work differently. That there is no choice makes no sense to me. Well, it does make some sense - by forcing Metro everywhere, Microsoft can sell more apps through its store. But removing that choice is going to alienate a significant percentage of Windows users. Is it really worth it?
The worst part is that this lack of choice seems to be a common theme with Microsoft products these days. Look no further than things like Office 2007/2010 which ignore the visual styles used with the rest of the operating system while allowing only a few basic choices for the color scheme. Or the ribbon interface they are forcing everywhere which might not be so bad - if only it could be customized to each individual user's needs. Now we have the forced Metro interface in Windows 8 plus the removal of the "Windows Classic" theme. It goes on and on. Microsoft has decided how they want you to use *your* computer, and they won't be convinced otherwise.
I also want to bring up one other point for those who feel that touchscreen interfaces aren't just for tablets, and have a place on the desktop as well. Even if I could have a perfect touchscreen interface for my desktop, why would I want to use that instead of a mouse? I am on my computer for many hours at a time, whether for work or fun. It's one thing to look at a movie like Minority Report and think that would be fun to try out for a few minutes; but from a practical point of view, I can't imagine the energy all those hand gestures and arm movements would require, compared to what I can already do with a mouse with much less movement and energy. A mouse will always be able to accomplish the same tasks on a desktop that hands alone can, using less energy. This is a basic principle known as mechanical advantage. Perhaps eventually we will come up with a more efficient tool to use in place of a mouse, but directly using only our own arms and hands is not - and never will be - the best way to use a complex system like a desktop computer.
Thanks for reading,
Sarah

Well said.
This Windwos 8 is useless for a desktop or laptop PC. After installing it on my laptop I laughed, what a joke, then I got upset because I'll have to eventually use it. I was able to avoid Vista and 7 and stick with XP but that runs out in 2014 so I was really hoping that 8 would be a good OS, looks like I'm out of luck.
I don't know what to use once XP is dead, Ubuntu?

I think with new Ubuntu you will not be happy, too! (Unity , Gnome 3) . Kubuntu would be the better choice, imho!
Or you wait just 2 more years and stay happy with xp, if w8 gets a desaster ms will have to think about customers' wishes.
Sarah, +3. MS is testing what it can put up with it's customers, therefore no choice Metro yes or no.
And if w8 does not sell with desktops they still have w7 to "downgrade". So ms is not that stupid, they still have a second horse
to win the race, and they prepare the field in a long term.

I enjoyed reading your post and thank you for sharing. Just wanted to chime in with my opinions.
I've been using W8 as my main OS for my PC, Tablet, and now my new convertible PC. I find W8 to be just as productive than W7 but more enjoyable. Metro is fresh, light and fast without me having to sacrifice the power of current applications.
I understand that some people do not like Metro. Initially I wasn't quite sure about it either. However after using it as my main OS since the developer preview I can say that now I don't want to go back. Lack of choice isn't always a bad thing. Sometimes sure it's not what we want but I do feel we'll get more choices and configuration as Microsoft continues to develop this new application platform.
I do wish it was more obvious on how to use the new features of W8. For example how am I supposed to know to move my cursor to the corners? Microsoft has stated they will give a tutorial on installation or first use so maybe it won't be that big of a deal. I found it fun and exciting to learn the new information but I know that's not the norm for the general public.
Thanks,

Great post. While I have a touch screen tablet, i still feel that its just the front end that is made suitable for a tablet. Underlying it is still the same windows which is not suitable for touch. Scrolling for instance and tapping really requires a precision touch as well as a finger that is similar to a stylus!

I am curious as to how you manage without multitasking on your desktop under Windows 8 customer preview build? Aside from Metro, and the lack of a traditional Start menu button, I am left wondering how one uses copy/paste or drag/drop in Windows 8. With full-screen applications there does not seem to be a viable way to do these things. Perhaps I have overlooked something though, which is why I figured it was worth asking.I enjoyed reading your post and thank you for sharing. Just wanted to chime in with my opinions.

Deploy solution through sharepoint designer - 2007
Hi, i have created an asp.net page for our client. He is asking me to deploy this page through sharepoint designer to view from his own SharePoint server.
Is is possible to deploy a solution through designer software.
This is the requirement for the project
1. Create a registration page and save data in sharepoint list
2. It will have some jquery files and images
We are using sharepoint server 2007 version. Is it possible to push these files and .dll into GAC everything through SharepointDesigner2007.
Please suggest some answers.
Thanks, Saravanan PRS

No. SharePoint Designer (SPD) cannot deploy ASPX pages with server side code or deploy anything to the server directories. SPD can only interact with content and pages stored in the SQL databases. You will need to use Visual Studio to create a SharePoint Solution package.
You can create pages in SPD that only use client side code such as AJAX, jQuery, JavaScript and Silverlight. These would interact with SharePoint lists using web services.

Hi Saravanan,
Thanks for your query and sharing your requirements with the forum readers. Mike is indeed correct, unfortunately SPD 2010 will not permit you to deploy such a custom set of functionality like yours. SPD is merely a designer tool that works with Sharepoint Office Server and using its internal webservices gives you whole bunch of functionality for customising Sharepoint sites and its look and feel.
Your best bet in my opinion is to either host VS 2005 + with Sharepoint Extentions on your production server or your local machine where you have already created your registration page (hoping you have packaged it as sharepoint web part).
Now, once created and deployed you can follow this article which explains how you can push the web part to your sharepoint 2007 environment / portal /site.
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/36792/Developing-and-Deploying-Custom-Web-Parts-for-Shar
Bear in mind, if you get any bits in code incorrect you have no opportunity to debug this but then you can explore remote debugging via Visual Studio using Vistual Studio Magazine website. If you do have Visual Studio on your production server then debugging is relatively simple and quick and web part deployment is blazing fast too.
Hope this helps you in formulating another perspective on custom solution deployment in MOSS 2007,
Good luck

Hi,
As far as i know, you cannot write object model code, unless you have local sharepoint setup. Also you can write TimerJob only using Object Model.
Once developed and tested locally the solution can be deployed on any remote SP 2010.
I hope that answers your question.

Problems with new TMG 2010 install - No connectivity
I've searched the forums and read all the suggested threads the forum reader listed as "questions similar to yours", but I simply cannot get TMG 2010 working properly. I've followed guides and ran all the initial configuration wizards, but nothing seems to help.
To begin, let me point out that this is on a Xen 6.0 server. I've tried presenting two vNICs to it, but now am down to one (Internal), per several install guides that say to get one NIC up and running, then add/configure the 2nd.
To compound matters, I'm getting the 'forever boot' issues with the TMG-associated services not starting in a timely manner. I've set them to delayed start, ran the "sc" config to set dependencies, etc... again, nothing helps. Currently, I'm running on Win2k8 SP2, as many have indicated the "16 minute boot" is a problem with Win2k8 R2 only.
At any rate, I have absolutely zero domain connectivity. I can ping the TMG server, and the server can ping out... including the internet (ie: resolve and ping google.com). I have any number of error messages (listed below) that you would associate with a lack of domain connectivity. Once TMG is done installing, nothing works. I have edited the System Policy to allow Terminal Services... but still cannot RDP in. I am using the XenCenter console to work on the server. I have also checked the "Authentication Services", which were enabled by default. I did, however, untick the"Enforce strict RPC compliance" box, which didn't help.
I can ping anything inside the network all day long (even though I never specifically enabled ping).
Can anyone help??

Just to add... as with 2008 R2, this seems to be some sort of issue with the TMG services themselves. They appear to run, but don't seem to be doing their jobs.
If I go to the TMG Dashboard, "Firewall" is stopped under "Services". The Windows Firewall shows "started" under the computer's services, but "Microsoft Forefront TMG Firewall" is stuck on "Starting".
I've tried restarting the "TMG Control" services (which restarts the rest), but it times out with "Windows could not stop the Microsoft Forefront Control service on TMG. Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion".
**EDIT**
I was able to restart the services. They took awhile, but eventually came back up. It still seems as if there is no connectivity. I also get the error:
Event ID 21257: Configuration changes made may result in loss of connectivity to the configuration storage server TMG.domain.com and cannot be applied. This alert is caused by a failure to connect to the Domain Controller.

I believe this is somehow connected with latest xenserver tools release.
I'm running xenserver 6.0 pool and recently upgraded all nodes to 6.0.2 version. As a result, all my guest VMs started to ask for XenServer Tools upgrade.
I have upgraded some guests successfully, but with my virtual TMG2010 I've had no luck with the exactly same symptoms as yours - VM takes forever to boot/logon, cannot connect to TMG via RDP, cannot use TMG as a proxy. The same errors in the logs regarding group policy processing.
I restored TMG system partition from the backup (with with xen tools 6.0 installed) and TMG returned back to normal operation. Then tried to uprade tools once again, just in case the first time some side issue prevented the tools from installing properly. Again, no luck.
For now I'm stuck with current (6.0) xentools version until someone come up with proper xentools upgrade path on virtual TMG2010.

Our TMG 2010 VM running on W2K8R2 Standard Server has been stuck on XenTools 5.6 for over a year now.
All other VMs are running the latest XenTools (6.0.2) but i haven't been able to upgrade the TMG 2010 server's XenTools version as it always has the same problems as the above post (VM takes forever to boot/logon, cannot connect to TMG via RDP, cannot use TMG as a proxy) after a Xentools upgrade. Every time a new Xenserver version upgrade is released, I upgrading XenTools on this VM again.
I make sure I've taken a snapshot of the VM first, upgrade XenTools, and then have to revert back to the snapshot when TMG 2010 (inevitably) fails to work.
Not a very helpful post but just wanted to add my experience to the mix in the hope that this is resolved.

a.klimkin and miccsm:
Thank you both for you replies. For whatever reason, I did not get any notifications, so I missed them until today.
Since I upgraded all my Xen hosts long before I attempted to install TMG, I had never experienced a working virtualized install.
I took a unused physical machine (a pretty good one, too) and installed TMG on it the same exact way I had been installing it, over and over, in my virtualized environment. Absolutely no problems. I don't get it, but I can only guess is has something to do with the virtualized networking in XenServer, or as you say, with the XenTools themselves.
I guess this box will be my TMG machine for now. What a bummer. All that time wasted...

Greetings: I have CA on windows 2003 r2 sp2, with all the latest hotfixes/updates. Now when windows 2008 r2 sp1 servers are trying to get certificates i am getting error msg( see below). I am installed confirmed the update is installed , but still i am getting this error,what am i missing... This happens for windows 7 sp1 machines too. works fine for 2003, xp machine
The certificate enrollment page you are attempting to access cannot be used with this version of Windows. To enable Web certificate enrollment for clients running Windows Vista, your administrator must update all Windows CA Web enrollment pages. To learn more about this issue and the steps needed to update Web enrollment pages to support all versions of Windows, see:

I am having the same problem. I have installed from the exe file:
WindowsServer2003-KB2518295-x86-ENU.exe
Also I had to manually edit one of the cert*.asp files and remove these lines:
7: <!-- #include FILE=certcert.in -->
205: <!-- #include FILE=certcnst.inc -->
206: <!-- #include FILE=xenrprxy.inc -->
To even be able enroll Certificates on the local machine.
Are you sure there is no problem with the patch? I have tried to install the patch several times, updates from WindowsUpdate, rebooted and still it doesnt work.

There is nothing wrong with the patch.
you should not have had to edit the asp pages to get enrollment working

It seems I have found the solution. Uninstall KB2518295. Install KB 922706. Then install KB2518295.

Anatolli: you are right Uninstall KB2518295. Install KB922706, then install KB2518295 . Also only installing KB922706 works.
MS should have mentioned in the KB, the description is deceive.
Thanks to everybody who commented

Thank you Anatolii, that worked for me also.
I'm assuming that KB922706 could be installed by re-applying Windows 2003 SP2.
Here is a link to KB922706 in case someone doesn't want to re-apply SP2: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=26328

Good call Anatolii. Thanks, saved me a lot of time. KB2518295 is in the "Software Updates for Windows Server 2003" section and is labelled as a "Security update for Windows Server 2003" in case anyone is going blind looking for it. Or you could just install "MyUninstaller" which has a search facility in it.
Certificate Server functionality only broke for me in the last few days (May 2012), even though I had kept the server relatively up-to-date and Anatolii's solution fixed it with very little fuss. Took a while to find this thread though. I was experiencing IIS 500 Internal Server Error when I browsed to the certrqma.asp page. Previous .asp pages leading to this one were ok. Once I turned "Show Friendly HTTP error messages off" (BTW Microsoft, awful Spanish translation for that option: 'Mostrar mensajes de error HTTP descriptivos' - it means just about the opposite and is counter-intuitive, but don't get me started on some of your hilarious translations) in MSIE I got the missing certcnst.inc file error, which lead me to this thread.
Thanks again people.

OCSP Server not checking CRL
Hi
I have a win 2008 R2 enterprise PKI architecture with a CA and a dedicated OCSP responder. I've set the responder to access the CRL from AD LDAP and in the Online Responder utility, it shows that the revocation configuration is working fine.
The problem is that when I revoke a certificate, republish the CRL and send an OCSP request to verify the revoked certificate's status, I still get the "good" response. I have tried changing the CRL refresh period in Online Responder utility to 5 minutes and changed the value of web cache to 1 but still no success and I won't get "revoked" response unless I refresh the revocation data on the online responder manually.
I have checked the AD LDAP using softerra LDAP browser and the new CRL is being published and the revoked certificates exists in the CRL. it seems the Online Responder does not check for new CRLs.
Thanks in advance

Yes you set it to check every five minutes, but it has cached a response that is good for the TTL of the CRL it based its decision on. Thing of OCSP responses as mini-CRLs. Once you have a response, you will cache it at the client for the remainder of its TTL. Turning these up to every 5 minutes will not work if you are testing from the same client. It will help a *new* client, but not an existing.

The problem is solved. It seems that it was caused by the OS clock times of OCSP Responder, CA and client not being synchronized.
after setting the "cache entries" value to 1 and synchronizing OS clocks, I could get the "revoked" response after maximum of five minutes even from the same client.

Client host
Manage IIS 7
start the connection wizard.
On the first screen, enter the following information (your site login information can be found in the Site Toolssection of Control Panel):
Server name: Your secondary URL address (excluding the "http://" portion)
Site name: Your domain name without "www".
Once you have the information entered, click on the next button to proceed to the credentials screen. At the credentials screen, you'll want to use the following:
User name: Your site default FTP login name
Password: Your site FTP password
The last step is to create a connection name. We recommend using your domain name to avoid any confusion should you create multiple connections. Click the "Finish" button to complete the wizard.

To me that is a pretty general question. Client management can be many different things:
1. are you pushing out software?
2. are you tracking software installed?
3. are you pushing out updates? Are those updates installing successfully?
etc.

I'm sure there's a language barrier here, but even so, this is a forum meant to address specific technical questions and problems, not provide generic product information. If you are looking for product information, then I suggest you visit the ConfigMgr product web site, review TechNet, buy a book, or use Bing.

Am I Understanding you correctly that the PC does PXE boot into WinPE initially, but then reboots? If that is the case it is most likely that the boot image does not have the correct NIC driver install
On your boot images > Right Click> Properties > Windows PE> Enable Command Support>Apply
You will need to make sure that the PXE distribution point is updated
NOTE: Do the for BOTH X86 and X64 Boot images
Clear the las PXE request for the Unknown computers Collection or the collection where the computer is staged if thats the case
PXE boot the device, when WinPE starts press F8, this will open a CMD prompt for you.
In the command Prompt try and ping your SCCM server, if you cant you are missing NIC drivers if you can then you will need to do a little more troubleshooting
On the c:\_SMSTaskSequence\ > Type notepad SMSTS.log
work throught the log and find any issues
Alternativly post the log here and we can take a look at the problem

Even I had same issue, finally I realised I don't have any Task Sequence advertised. :-)

Hi,
Rright click on the computer in SCCM and choose 'clear last PXE advertisement'
and clear the PXE advertisement, if still that problem is showing then check the registry key value , what you configured, and sometime WDS and PXE restating works
