About
I’m Karine Bosch and I’m a SharePoint developer. Since April 2009 I’m rewarded as SharePoint MOSS MVP. For several years I worked as technical assistant for Patrick Tisseghem who unfortunately died on 3th September 2008. After I left U2U, I started working part time for Spikes NV and for Critical Path Training of Ted Pattison and Andrew Connell (the former Ted Pattison Group). As of January 2011 I start working for ING, which is a banking company.
The U2U CAML Query Builder and some other SharePoint features like the U2U List Properties feature and the U2U Site Properties are developed by me and are still downloadable from the U2U site at http://www.u2u.be/res/software.aspx.
Together with Patrick we developed the alfa and beta versions of the Silverlight BluePrint for SharePoint which contains several samples on how to integrate Silverlight with SharePoint. You can download the samples from http://www.codeplex.com/SL4SP.
Also the integration between SharePoint and CRM intrigues me. If you have questions on how to develop in SharePoint using CRM data, you can read my article at http://sharepointmagazine.net/technical/development/developing-a-sharepoint-custom-field-type-for-displaying-crm-40-data.
If you need detailed information about CAML or the SharePoint web services you can read my articles at http://www.U2U.be/res/articles.aspx and of course you can post your questions on this blog.
Also PowerShell (with SharePoint of course) is not unkown to me. You can read several posts about this on my previous blog http://www.U2U.info/blogs/karine.
If you don’t find the answers to your questions on this blog, you can always post your questions to the SharePoint 2007 forum or the SharePoint 2010 forum. You can find me there almost every day.
