:::Update:::

So I've figured it out...as I suspected it isn't intuitive IMO. But here it goes:

Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Manage another account -> Select Account -> Change Password

The "Manage another account" is what got me last time!

Enjoy!

------------------------------------------------------------------

So I just installed Windows Server 2012. I was struggling with the simplest concept, how to change my current password on my user account. Seems that the old CTRL+ALT+DELETE -> Change Password is no longer available?



To get around the issue you can use one of the following methods:

Method 1:

Click Start ->Administrative Tools -> Computer Management -> Expand Local Users and Computers -> Expand Users -> Right Click <username> -> Click "Set Password".

Method 2:


Launch PowerShell -> type in  LUSRMGR

Loading SOS
For sometime now I have relied on windbg to show me exceptions occuring in SharePoint.

You can attach windbg to any process and view the .NET exceptions occuring at runtime between the process and the CLR, even handled exceptions.

Usually the true source of the error is hidden in a wrapper and rethrown as an irrelevant exception. Thank you SharePoint.

In order to view these exceptions we can attach windbg to either the w3wp.exe related to your IIS website running the SharePoint site by clicking Start => Run => inetmgr => Click on server => Worker processes, or by powershell if you are executing or can execute the relevant command through powershell you can attach the to powershell.exe process.

After launching windbg and attaching to a process we need to load the Sons of Strike SOS.dll to enable viewing managed exceptions in windbg, without the SOS dll we can only view native code.

To do this within the windbg command prompt of the attached process type:

Modify DataView XSLT to Add Url in Grid to Workflow Initiation Form

By -
I recently created a data view. I wanted a simple link to the list items workflow initiation form, to simply allow the user to access and start the workflow.

The confusing aspect of all this is that normally we could do something simple such as

<a href=http://someurl/page.aspx?ID={@ID}></a>

The xsl transform will resolve {@ID} to the value of @ID.


The problem with this was that I actually also needed to include ListID and TemplateID both of these query parameters require the Guid to be wrapped in curly braces. So I modified the above and added a ListID to create the following:


<a href=http://someurl/page.aspx?ID={@ID}&List={05cf277f-5d2e-4b46-8dc9-27a1e1c5ff36}></a>
The first I problem I had with this was an error occured due to the & ampersand. I needed to encode it to and to prevent Sharepoint from erroring as a result of unencoded text.


The second problem is that curly braces resolve variables. So the second error was relating to Sharepoint failing t…
