It looks like I will need to upload a spreadsheet form into a library and when this happens a custom workflow will start. I was able to publish an InfoPath form into our SharePoint at work however the admins here do not allow us to use the Browser for filling out the form. Perfect time to seriously get into creating custom workflows in SharePoint Designer 2013. I will try to get the admins to allow forms in the browser but if I fight too much I might lose the software I currently have on my computer.

SharePoint:

I was incorrect last week when I said I was able to publish an InfoPath form to my SharePoint site after waiting overnight. Going back to last week I actually thought I was opening up the form in a browser but in fact it was opening up in InfoPath. When I closed InfoPath down at tried opening up the form in the browser on Friday there was no luck. I headed back to Google and ultimatly found an obscure post with a simple fix. All I had to do was allow ‘Management of content type’ in the library settings ‘Advanced Settings’ section and it worked perfectly. I was also able to set this feature in SharePoint Designer 2013 with a click and save. No waiting over night, save and your are done. Tested this on my Surface Pro 3m that does not have InfoPath installed and it worked like a charm.

I tried this little trick at work but it looks like I still need to go the excel form and custom workflow route. This is not a bad thing as it allows me more opportunity to learn new things broadening my skill base for writing the help books I am looking forward to.

Unity, C#, Python and Blender

Sent in the reviews for Chapters four and six. Started setting up the Character Customization scene and it is looking pretty darn good as of this morning. The scene is simple, the code behind the customization and UI is what will be challenging.

This last weekend:

I said this last weekend would be spectacular and it was. Everything worked out perfect from cooking, controlling my eating and drinking and sleeping. Such a great weekend should run right into a fantastic week. So far so good. See ya all next week.

Next weekend will be even better.

Started back with Lynda.com the last couple of weeks and I had forgotten how good those lessons are. Gini Couter {sp} is a great instructor for SharePoint and SharePoint Designer 2013.
