Occasionally I carry the Dell that my office provided me as well. Yes -- that's right.

Scott Singleton pnbsp;/p
pI spent the week tweaking my presentation for SharePoint Saturday in New York, including timing my entire presentation, testing the presentation on a low resolution monitor (read my 17rdquo; Digital TV on my desk) and even working with a nifty remote control iPhone Application that let me read my slide deck notes and track my time./p
pHow did this go over?nbsp; It didnrsquo;t work.nbsp; No matter how hard you plan something is going to pop up.nbsp; What do you do? You improvise. You ad [read]. Posted: Sun, Sep 13th '09 |

Visual Studio Macros for working with GUIDs in XML
Scott Singleton pOne of the biggest time drains I experience when creating SharePoint solutions is the constant creation of new GUIDs, especially when creating site columns (Fields).nbsp; Each time I wanted to create anbsp; new field I would typically copy the previous line and make the appropriate changes./p
