CHAPTER 9 ■ SHAREPOINT AND MICROSOFT OFFICE 331■Note There is no way to prevent Outlook from downloading all of the documents in a library when you gooffline. While this makes it easy to grab a library and run, it also means that you can be downloading a significantamount of information. Documents that are candidates for offline use should be segregated intoseparate smaller libraries to make downloading efficient.Going MobileSupport for mobile devices is now built in to SharePoint through a set of pages located in thefolder C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\MOBILE. The pages support a default mobile view for any site in SharePoint by simplynavigating to the address of the home page with /_layouts/mobile/default.aspx appended. Forexample, you can view the home page of your intranet by navigating to http://vsmoss/intranet/_layouts/mobile/default.aspx.While you can certainly view the mobile pages in your desktop browser, it is much moreuseful to view them as they will actually appear in a device. In order to accomplish this, you canutilize the device emulator that is part of Visual Studio 2005. This emulator simulates several differentdevices on your desktop so you can target your development. In order to get the emulatorworking, however, you have to set it up as if you were synchronizing an actual mobile device.Follow these steps to view your sites in the device emulator:1. Log in to VSMOSS as a local administrator.2. Download and install the ActiveSync 4.2 software from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/activesync42.mspx. This software is used to connect mobiledevices to your desktop.3. Select Start ➤ All Programs ➤ Microsoft Visual Studio 2005.4. Select Tools ➤ Device Emulator Manager from the main menu in Visual Studio.5. In the Device Emulator Manager dialog, select Pocket PC 2003 SE Emulator.6. Select Actions ➤ Connect. The emulator should appear in a new window.7. Select Start ➤ All Programs ➤ Microsoft ActiveSync to start ActiveSync, which will nowwait for a device to be cradled.8. In the Device Emulator Manager dialog, make sure that the Pocket PC 2003 SE Emulatoris selected. Select Actions ➤ Cradle from the menu. The New Partnership wizardshould appear.9. In the New Partnership wizard, select Guest Partnership and click the Next button.10. When the Microsoft ActiveSync dialog indicates that the device is connected, selectStart ➤ Internet Explorer in the Pocket PC 2003 emulator.11. Enter http://vsmoss/intranet/_layouts/mobile/default.aspx in the address bar andclick the green arrow to open the page. You should now see the mobile version of theintranet home page.
332CHAPTER 9 ■ SHAREPOINT AND MICROSOFT OFFICEWhen you first view a site through the emulator, you’ll see a page with links to thestandard lists and libraries such as Announcements, Tasks, and Shared Documents. If youwant to add other lists to the mobile view, you must explicitly designate a list view as mobile.This is accomplished from the Edit View page associated with the view you want to display.The Mobile section contains options that you can select to make the view mobile as well asmake it the default mobile view for the list. Figure 9-4 shows the Mobile section on the EditView page.Figure 9-4. Designating mobile viewsIn addition to exposing lists for mobile consumption, you can also create your own custompages for use with mobile devices. When you create your own custom pages, you can tailor themfor display on a specific device. Additionally, you can utilize SharePoint object model code in thepage. Developing for mobile devices is another broad category that goes beyond the scope of thisbook, but you can create some simple pages for mobile devices quite easily in Visual Studio.Follow these steps to create a home page for a mobile device that displays all the sites in acollection:1. With Visual Studio 2005 still open from the previous example, select File ➤ New ➤ WebSite from the main menu.2. In the New Web Site dialog, select ASP.NET Web Site from the list of templates.3. Select File System from the Location drop-down list.4. Select Visual Basic from the Language list.5. Click the OK button.6. When the new project opens, select the Default.aspx page in the Solution Explorerand delete it.7. Right-click the project in the Solution Explorer and select Add New Item from the contextmenu.8. In the Add New Item dialog, select Mobile Web Form.9. Name the new form Home.aspx.10. Make sure the box labeled Place Code in a Separate File is not checked. You cannot usecode-behind in this solution.
