Creating Custom SharePoint Server 2010 Document Sets with Visual Studio 2010
Still published and available on the original platform.
Document sets, introduced in Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010, enable users to create a composite item that consists of properties and child documents. This enables customers to associate multiple documents with a single work item and wrap them into a single version or workflow.
The SharePoint browser-based user interface (UI) makes it easy to create document sets. However, developers may want to create document sets by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and package them in portable and reusable solution packages (.wsp files).
This Visual How To demonstrates how to create a custom document set by using the SharePoint development tools in Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.
When Microsoft retired their MSDN site, it impacted their Visual How To series. Therefore, you may see rendering issues for these Visual HowTo’s including playback problems with the videos. Unfortunately this is out of my control.
