Jacksonville Office Geeks: June 2008 Meeting: Adding Custom Field Types and Custom Content Types to your MOSS Installation

Our next meeting is on Thursday, June 19, 2008. Here's the session title & abstract to help you get a better idea of what we'll be discussing:

Adding Custom Field Types and Custom Content Types to your MOSS Installation
Ever wished you could use a MOSS List as a mechanism for storing business data, but found yourself limited by the built-in WSS field types? WSS 3.0 includes the ability to define your own custom field types. Custom field types allow you to control the initialization, rendering and data validation behind your columns. In this session, Dylan will walk you through creating and deploying custom field types and content types.

Speaker: Dylan Phillips

Hi AC,

First of all I really wanna thank you for your great book.It really helped me alot.Second comes the problem :-)...

Actually I was trying to do custom field type similar to what you have explained in the book but when I am rendering it in page layout.I am getting the error: cannot instantiate type "ABCcontrol" because it is not public.

Do you have any idea how to resolve this error?

Thanks,
PS
