What a great year!  I have been very active in the region getting to watch/learn from fellow professionals in my industry.  I seen various topics such as systems administration, development, database administration, networking engineering, and proven project management.

I have gotten to meet first hand with a lot of people that I have read about on the Internet or read their published books.  The social aspect of the these types of events are what I cherish the most.

Below is my list of past presentation schedules:

I cannot wait for the 2012 year to meet new IT professionals in the community and continue hanging out with the ones I have now established with in these groups.

While working on a client project, I was refreshing SharePoint 2010 environments to support our various QA and Development teams.

I implemented the SharePoint 2010 content hub for this project.  While detaching/attaching content databases to the staging environment; the Metadata Term Store data did not transfer.

This term set was a key feature in our project.

I searched the internet and came across this tool on CodePlex.  This tool was easy to use and fixed my issue.

I was able to export the term set from the source SharePoint 2010 farm.  Then transfer the CSV file to the destination.  Installed the tool again and the term set uploaded with no issues.

Finally, finally, and finally!  SharePoint 2010 SP1 has now been officially released to the public.  Why does this excite me?  You know the length and process of getting SharePoint systems up-t0-speed with patches?  Believe me; they take time.   The good news is that all the cumulative updates are now including so now I can clear off 2.5 gigabytes of drive space to keep the other patches around. 

But please review these white papers located in the list below.   There is a required SQL Server patch associated to the Service Pack.
