Alright, I’ve gotten a lot of questions from people who aren’t familiar writing code on how to actually implement my active directory search web service I posted a long time ago.

So I saw this little gem on the Windows 7 Beta Program website. In previous builds there was a submit feedback tool, which while cumbersome and unwieldy worked and did what it was supposed.

Just a quick little post about how to make Outlook display reminders automatically for a SharePoint calendar.

So lately I’ve been getting reports of a recent update making it so outlook no longer handles MAILTO: links causing all sorts of confusion in other office programs so I cooked up a little registry file that seems to fix it. This registry file is for office 2003 but changing OFFICE11 to OFFICE12 should make it work for office 2007 as well.
