- To create an instance of a list when creating a site
- To populate a default home page for the site with Web Parts
Module 7: WSS v3 Object Model Fundamentals

- The advantages and limitations of Web Service orientation in SharePoint.
- An introduction to the Web Services provided in WSS v3.
- Demonstrate the use of WSS v3 Web Services in development projects.
Module 9: Custom Web Part Fundamentals
In this module, we will introduce Web Parts and discuss the differences between the Web Part framework in ASP2 and WSS v3. Details about the ASP2 page and Web Part life cycle; a critical piece of knowledge Web Part developers should posses, will also be covered. You will learn:
- What Web Parts are and their common use
- The differences between ASP2 and WSS v3 Web Parts
- The objects instantiated on a SharePoint Web Part page
- About the ASP2 Page life cycle and where Web Part events fit into that life cycle

Module 10: Custom Web Part Techniques
In this module, we will demonstrate how to build custom Web Parts. You will learn:
- The minimal steps required to build and deploy a Web Part.
- To control the User Interface of a Web Part
- To implement State Management within a Web Part using custom properties
- To Debug a Web Part
- To Apply Code Access Security to a Web Part
- To Deploy a completed Web Part using a SharePoint Solution
Module 11: Advanced Web Part Techniques
In this module, we will demonstrate more advanced Tips and Tricks that can be used to build complex Web Parts. We will focus on implementing additions to the Web Part menu structure, implementing client-side scripting, developing two web parts that can communicate with each other. You will learn:
- How to programmatically modify a Web Part menu using the ASP.NET 2.0/WSS v3 verbs implementation
- To use the Web Part Page Services Component (WPSC) in client-side scripting Web Part development
- To program a custom Interface that will allow Web Parts to be connected together
Module 12: WSS v3 Events
In this module, we will examine the support for Event driven programming in WSS v3. We will discuss how event support has changed since WSS v2. We will also discuss when to use an Event Handler and when to use a Workflow. You will learn:
- When to use Event Handlers vs. when to use Workflows
- The types of SharePoint objects that support event handlers
- When to use "before" events vs. "After" events
- To create a basic event handler
- To install and activate an event handler using either a Feature or the SharePoint object model.
Module 13: WSS v3 Workflow
In this module, we will examine the use of the Windows Workflow Foundation (WWF) in WSS v3. While not part of the WSS v3 platform, WSS does leverage this foundation to build workflows. You will learn:
- How Workflow has been implemented in WSS v3
