Mike Walsh's WSS and more - WSS FAQ additions and corrections LXXIII - 23rd

WSS FAQ additions and corrections LXXIII - 23rd - 29th September 2007

Note: All of the addresses of the KB / Articles - 2007 Products / MS / Non-MS Articles below were valid at the time I added them to the WSS FAQ
site and to this file. I can't guarantee that they still are.

(There were so many Modified KB articles that I may have added some WSS 2.0 ones to the WSS 3.0 list by mistake (and vice versa) - apologies for that)

(This is also posted to the WSS newsgroup at microsoft.public.sharepoint.windowsservices - web access via http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/newsgroups/server/sharepoint.mspx)

(Items are added to the WSS FAQ throughout the week so you will find new items more quickly by checking at wss.collutions.com or www.wssfaq.com daily.)
