Creating a SharePoint blog post using Word 2010

Create your blog posts in Word 2010 and post to your SharePoint blog (or other blogs such as Blogger).

It's really quite simple.

Open Microsoft Word 2010.

From the Start menu, Select NEW>Blog Post



The first time you do this, you'll be asked to register your blog platform. Word provides several options. I selected Blogger (of course).

Provide your account # and password:

Then you'll be asked to provide Picture Options... provide your server location or choose None.
(see this page from Microsoft for more details on the Picture Options: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/help-with-blogging-in-word-HA010164021.aspx?ver=14&app=winword.exe#_Toc321212396 )
)

Type your blog post as normal, inserting pictures if desired and publish.

This Microsoft Video shows you how:

A review of VisualSP for SharePoint 2013 - unsolicited

One of the things we wanted to do in our new SharePoint 2013 environment was create a more user friendly environment and increase adoption by giving users the ability to learn "how-tos" without the need of a training class or a guided tour by the SharePoint person (aka me).  My first thought when we began planning for the upgrade was that built-in help would be excellent, but would also be a monumental task to create.  Having used many of SharePoint-Videos.com videos for my own learning needs, I turned to their site for ideas. Enter VisualSP.  Obviously, I'm not the only person who desired in-context help for the end users. We purchased VisualSP for SharePoint 2013.  Once our environment was configured properly, installation was not difficult. The installation procedures were straight forward and easy to follow. I am not replicating that information here, but will hit the highlights.  For full details and screenshots, see the link above. Installation must...

InfoPath Would Not Submit a Form - Concatenate function yielded a title that was too long!

Had a user today who was experiencing issues submitting an InfoPath form.  The original set of error messages made me assume that SharePoint was not set as Local Intranet site (which it wasn't).  So I set SharePoint as the local intranet site,  updated the user's desktop icon shortcut (to use the https version of the site).  And thought, okay, problem solved.  Alas and alack, not so! The user entered a form went to submit it and got a different set of error messages. (Unfortunately I didn't think to screenshot the errors and send them to myself so I don't have the exact wording for any of the errors.)  The basic message the second time was InfoPath cannot submit the form.  I've seen variations of this error before, so I started looking at Compatibility View, and Add-ons.  Well, I found the user had IE10 which we recommend our users NOT install as there are known compatibility issues with IE10 and SharePoint 2007 as well as some of our other inte...
