Summary: A poor effort
Comment: I am deeply disappointed with this purchase. After reading only 50 pages, I am disgusted by the poor grammar as well as many typos. For someone trying to learn the subject, such as myself, mistakes are not very tolerable. The installation chapter is also mistaken in that SQL Server 2005 SP2 does not already contain SP1. Did anyone proofread this book?

Summary: Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server 2007: The Complete Reference (Complete Reference Series)
Comment: Probably the most comprehensive book on the complete product. Lots of bits and pieces out there but this one covers it all. I can tell it was started out early as a few things in the SDK have changed, but the concepts in here as well as the broad coverage of the way things fit together is outstanding. I was particularly impressed with the detailed explanations on some of the finer aspects like search. For day to day, this is a must have on the shelf!

Summary: Great Reference and Place to Start
Comment: In my efforts to get back up to speed on SharePoint technologies I found this book th simply be the best resource. It can be used either as a reference or as a straight read to get up to speed. I read about 85% of the book on a 4 hour flight and it was a Godsend!

Summary: "Errata"
Comment: As mentioned in the very harshly rated comments, there were a few typo's in Chapter 17 (14 pages of 782). These are as follows:

Publishing errors:

Page 604 - Xmlns=http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint

Should be: xmlns=http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint

Page 605 - Item 13. Should say ElementsManifest.xml (instead of ElementManifest.xml).

Page 609 - Should say BrandingElementManifest.xml

Two corrections to the batch files:

In FeatureInstaller.cmd, the line: %SPROOT%\bin\STSADM -o activatefeature -name MyFirstFeature -url "%2"

Should have this line after it: goto EndBatch

In FeatureInstaller.cmd, the line: %SPROOT%\bin\STSADM -o activatefeature -name My1stFeature

Should be: %SPROOT%\bin\STSADM -o installfeature -name My1stFeature
and add this line after it: goto EndBatch

The Solution.xml file referred to by the reviewer is not mentioned specifically because a) it is not needed and b) this is a file created by the Windows SharePoint Extensions for Visual Studio used for creating Web Parts and similar solutions using Visual Studio, it is NOT used by this process and is not required.

My appologies on these since all were due to publishing edits and were correct in the original write.

The correct code and this "errata" is located at http://www.mosstcm.com

Summary: Best Installation Guide
Comment: If part of your job is installing SharePoint Server 2007 or SharePoint Serveices 3.0 this is the book that you should own. No other book that I have read is as detailed in describing the installation process. If you are only interested in development or administration you will find better books.
