Office Open XML Formats

Open XML Formats Architecture
* 4/15/ :12 PM * Open XML Formats Architecture Questionaire.docx User view: single Office “file” Document Parts Most parts are XML Each XML part is a discreet, compressed component Can add, extract and modify individual parts using any Zip implementation Corruption or absence of any part would not prohibit the file from being opened Developer view: modular file Users see a single file in the environment But for developers, Open XML Formats are XML packaged in a ZIP file * ©2005 Microsoft Corporation.

Benefits Of Open XML Solutions
No longer need to automate client applications to open and modify files Unsupported solution on server Clients not designed for this scenario Reliability Access directly the parts you need Avoid corruption Transparency Direct access to your data! State Problem: Clients running on servers Secondary Processes Reverse engineering = Data corruption

Tools for Accessing Data In Office Open XML files
XML Editing Notepad? System.XML makes this easier ZIP Manipulation Compressed Folders in Windows Third-Party Zip Libraries Microsoft’s Packaging API’s (.NET Fx 3.0) Office Open XML Resource Kit Code Snippets C# and VB.NET Validation Library Parses a file and reports on schema, relationship errors and warnings Serialization/Deserialization Library Flattens package into a single file for ease of development in simple construction scenarios Use any XML library Use any Zip library We found that abstraction helpful, so with D2 invented WinFX Tell store about Code Snippets from beginning to end Tell story about validation library and thoughts Tell story about Serialization/deserialization

Sharepoint 2007 and Workflow

Office Workflow Vision
4/15/ :12 PM Office Workflow Vision Facilitate human processes by attaching business logic to items and documents in Windows SharePoint Services, while providing context and tracking progress Empower information workers using Office Server with out-of-the-box solutions and self-service tools to support a broad range of routing and tracking scenarios without IT involvement Empower organizations to build a broad range of sophisticated workflow solutions that take advantage of the full functionality of the Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) platform and integrate into the SharePoint and Office experiences Now let’s talk about the Office workflow vision. There are three key components: First, we focused on workflow around items and documents living in SharePoint. This was a pragmatic choice because we knew that we could have a more effective first generation workflow feature set if we could assume the presence of a server. This means that while we have extensive client workflow features, we have a hub and spoke model, where the “truth” of a workflow lives on the SharePoint server. The second component of our vision was to provide out –of-the-box value for information workers that does not require IT intervention. To this end, we’ve surveyed dozens of companies to understand what the most common workflow applications are and we’ve built workflow templates that does this. We’ll talk about these in more detail in a moment. Finally, while we have invested heavily in our out-of-the-box workflows, we realize that they won’t meet every need, so we have provided for extensibility by enabling rich workflow solutions to be built using SharePoint Designer and the Windows Workflow Foundation designer. We’ll talk more about workflow designers a little later. Talk about reusability. © 2006 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. This presentation is for informational purposes only.
