Do yo have any ideas?

Nice blog post. Thank you. This way works fine when you want to present data from another site in a table. It seems there is no standard way in Sharepoint designer to show a calendar view from the main site on another subsite in the same site collection. It doesn´t look very nice to present a calendar list in a table. Please let me know if you know a way to do thís.

I have a problem with a particular server.

On my development server I was able to add a sub-site's data source library to a top level site, and the lists showed up as expected.

However on a clients production server, I tried the same thing (Add a sub-sites data source library), as a site collection admin and there is only one site collection, but the lists did not show up. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

I can connect to other sites but I don't get any lists or libraries. Just Database Connections, XML Files, etc.

It used to work before it was upgraded to WSS 3.0.

Thanks for your nice article!

I really appreciate the stuff. Just to confirm one thing, the same can be implement in WSS 2.0. If you have FrontPage 2003, and simple way you can follow insert data view web part, and so on.

Cheers!

It is really a helpful stuff.

Is there any facility to reply from the new site and get that reflected in the original site?

Great tutorial and Thank you Thank you Thank you... I was trying to figure this out for about 2hrs before I came upon your post. Figured out how to link from outside RSS feeds and such but trying to the posts inside the site was driving me nuts.

@Cipri from a few comments previous

I had the same problem with the Multiple Item View not showing up... not sure what causes it but I just draged the fields that I wanted and droped them into the page, from there the tutorial was the same.

Is it possible to use DataView WebPart to edit items in a remote Sharepoint list? Like EditForm for remote list?

The "insert selected fields as" menu was not showing up for me at all. I had to click "insert data source control" before "show data" in the step before inserting fields. This overwrites whatever you've clicked on in the SharePoint page. The "insert selected fields" menu should now be available.

Other than my post above this tutorial went like a breeze! It has saved me some huge headaches!

Hi,

Thanks for this nice guide.

Is it possible to have the dataviewer show only one item from another library. Somthing like your guide, but one could provide an ID to point out a specific item in that library we want to show.

Regards,

Ryan

If anyone is interested I've just released a beta version of a web part which will display lists from the same or other site collection, and also display calendars. It is a commercial product, but if you are interest have a look at my blog at http://blog.salamandersoft.co.uk/CategoryView,category,ListView.aspx

Is there a way to do this for those of us who are not server admins and don't have SharePoint Designer or FrontPage?

re: Displaying a list on another site (in the same site collection)

Bernd — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 16:06:27 GMT

Okay,

seems quit good, but i couldn't get it running through diffrent subfolders of a list.

The list has 3 subfolders in the root-folder and there is a view, showing up all entries regardless of the sourcefolder.

Is it possible to show this...?!

THX in advance

Bernd
