I’ve been doing non-waterfall development for the past 10 years of my career in one form or another, and though Agile/SCRUM/XP practices are almost assumed at this point, I still see many organizations that need help with making it work. The agile transformation usually starts with a well-intentioned individual in a middle management or lead…
This is a question that’s come up multiple times with folks I’ve worked with, and is something I consider best practice. The last time someone asked me about this, I figured I’d just blog it up with screenshots and send him the URL. So Daniel, this post is for you…. For years Project has…
There are times when you connect to a secondary data source in InfoPath and would like to automatically populate a repeating table based off the source. This can be done whether it is through a database or SharePoint data connection. First step would be to create a secondary data connection in InfoPath. Once you have…
I’ve thought for several years now about writing a book about real world experience versus classic management methodology and it looks like there are two new ones coming out that will be great to read before taking that step.
