Format:Paperback
This book provides the best text resource currently on the market for SharePoint 2003 developers and other such technical savvy users who need to know not just the basics, but about the nuts and bolts of the SharePoint products and technologies. The book covers both SharePoint Portal Server 2003 and Windows SharePoint Services and covers all aspects of design, development, deployment, through to customisation and troubleshooting.
On the cover, it claims that Bill English, the author has worked with the Microsoft SharePoint teams in producing this Resource Kit. I have used this book for over six months and it is obvious that Bill has in-fact worked along with them. Throughout, the author is able to provide vast in-depth information into SharePoint 2003, while still presenting the information in a clear, well-formatted and understandable manner.
The book is divided into eleven sections covering the introduction of SharePoint products and technologies, Architecture, Planning and Deployment, Administration, Information Management, Security through to Office Integrations and Maintenance. It covers all the areas of SharePoint from basic to advanced functionality and although the book hasn't answered all my questions thrown at it, I have found time and time again, it is the only one with a chance of doing so, or at least putting me on the right track.
Some of the material in the book is repeated on the MSDN web site in various articles, though the book is a lot easier to use than the Microsoft MSDN search facility.
Format:Paperback
On page 1001 we get to the meat. using Visual Studio .Net to Create Web Parts. Except that it doesn't say which Visual Studio. My assumption has to be that this is VS2005 (superseeded by 2008 and soon 2010). There is no mention of Ajax because the book was written so long ago. The process for VS2008 is completely different.
The penultimate web part example in this book shows you how to create a button that can be clicked and echo back what you typed in a text box (usefull or what?).
Did I say meat? Well the Creation of Web Parts chapter finishes on page 1023.
If you pulled all the code together from this book, it might fill two side of one sheet of paper.

Worth the investment for your SharePoint team...
4 Jan 2005
Format:Paperback
I have been using the Microsoft Resource Kits on many products over the past 10 years and the SharePoint 2003 kits is one of the most comprehensive produced to date for a Microsoft application. The book is designed as a resource Kit to pull together all relevant information in one location.
Our company placed an order on Amazon.ca as soon the SharePoint Resource Kit was listed as the early SharePoint 2003 printed documentation was sparse and the book was a welcome addition. We found it better to have a paper book with all the information in one location rather than just links to websites, whitepapers, and webcasts to rely upon alone. We now have 3 copies for our project teams to used for their SharePoint work as well as the Internet resources.
I found the structure of the book confusing at first as we used it to help learn the product but now it is a great daily resource. The Adobe PDF manual and several tools are included on the CD-ROM and are great for finding support materials in a jiffy.
Yes, its a buy...

Layout and Lack of Critical Info Hamper
5 July 2005
Format:Paperback
This book is like the 'Da Vinci Code' for SharePoint. It has a lot of information. A LOT OF INFORMATION. The problem is, the layout and order of presentation in the book make it almost impossible to read and find information. Loading the included disk is a requirement. Use the PDF and search electronically for the information because the printed index is incredibly lacking.
Because it is so hard to find stuff, one thinks that MS is trying to hide information or that critical information was left out.
Good resource, but be prepared for a continent spanning search for information that will takes days, leave you bedraggled, and make you think you've solved centuries old mysteries once you finally find what you are looking for. Pack lightly, carry currency, and perhaps a firearm (for the book, share point machine, self, your choice).

Crucial documentation for SharePoint administrators
21 Nov 2005
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the book that *should* have shipped with every copy of SharePoint Portal Server 2003.
I haven't looked at the paper copy in quite some time; the searchable PDF copy of the book that comes as part of the Resource Kit CD is actually much more useful for me, because it's searchable. I refer to it constantly.
