Hi. We have donwloaded and installed SharePoint 2007 (MOSS) evaluation version on one of our servers. I have a DEV machine with .NET Framework 2.0 and VS 2005 on it. What kind of other tools do I need in order to start creating cutom web parts for SharePoint 2007? Right now my VS 2005 doesn't have an option of Web Part project. I know I need to download something but not sure what and in what order. My DEV machine doesn't have SharePoint on it. Thank you,

I worked on sharepoint nearly 2 yrs back for some time , what I can recall from that is " we need to add a DLL provided by Sharepoint.

Are you talking about Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.dll? Here are the steps I've done so far. 1. We have a server with MOSS (SharePoint 2007) installed. 2. I have a DEV machine with VS 2005 and .NET framework (2.0 and 3.0) 3. I've installed Microsoft SharePoint Services 3.0 on that DEV machine. 4. I've installed Visual Studio SharePoint Extensions, which gave me these nice icons to create WebPart and other SharePoint projects. Is this the right way to go? After all this installations I still didn't have Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.dll on DEV machine so I've copied it from server where MOSS installed and added to the ISAPI directory where all other dlls are. After doing that I was able to create webparts that I've wanted and drop them into bin directory on the server. Of course I've run into some security issues, which I've solved by modifying trust level in the web.config from minimum to medium. I know that there's a way to attach config file for each part you create I just don't know how to do that yet. If you have any references and/or examples, or maybe even books I can read please send them my way. I really appreciate your response.

good :) that you were able to create the webparts. I think you get a lot of help material on MSDN. amit

There's a lot of information and it's all other the place. Why can't they just put it all together for user who wants to do development. You know what I mean. Step to follow to make sure you have all in place for development. Web Parts work good. My boss was happy. I guess MS wants you to take bunch of courses instead of figuring it out on your own. Do you have any links/info I can use for SahrePoint development? Thank you,
