Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 - Application Development

  By Certification Magazine —

These practice test questions from MeasureUp are based on the C# version of Microsoft’s exam 70-542: Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 - Application Development.

The audience for this exam includes individuals who are responsible for developing SharePoint Server software applications. Experience using ASP.NET 2.0 and .NET Framework 2.0 and with developing and deploying SharePoint Server applications will help you prepare for this exam.

MeasureUp offers practice tests for both the C# version and the VB version of exam 70-542.

Objective: Managing Enterprise Content.
Sub-Objective: Enforce document storage business rules by using Document Policy.

Single answer, multiple choice.

You are a Microsoft Office SharePoint developer. Your company now requires that all SharePoint users add a document change history line item to all software requirements documents before saving the documents.

You need to create a class to meet the new requirement.

What should you do?

A.    Create a class that inherits PolicyFeature.
B.    Create a class that implements IRouter.
C.    Create a class that implements IPolicyFeature.
D.    Create a class that inherits Router.

Answer:
C

Tutorial:
You should create a class that implements IPolicyFeature. This interface, which represents a policy feature, defines methods and properties with which SharePoint interacts to invoke custom business rules or functionality. A policy feature can be included in one or more policies, which are assigned to content types.

You should not create a class that inherits PolicyFeature. The PolicyFeature class represents a policy feature that exists in SharePoint.

You should not create a class that implements IRouter. This interface allows you to implement a custom records repository router. Records repository routers allow you to perform additional processing on documents that are submitted to a records repository.

You should not create a class that inherits Router. This class represents a router that exists in SharePoint.

Objective: Creating Business Intelligence Solutions by Using Office SharePoint Server 2007.
Sub-Objective: Expose a data source by adding a data connection to a Report Center Web Site.

Single answer, multiple choice.

You are a Microsoft Office SharePoint developer. A Microsoft Excel Services workbook uses a text data source to display data from a comma-separated value (CSV) file. The name and location of the CSV file might change in the future.

You need to make this data source available to other Excel workbooks.

What should you do?

A.    Create a user-defined function (UDF) that returns the name of the CSV file.
B.    Export the data source as an Office Database Connection (.odc) file.
C.    Insert a macro that prompts the user for the CSV file path.
D.    Publish the CSV file as a document in SharePoint.

Answer:
B

Tutorial:
You should export the data source as an .odc file. These files store connection information to external data sources. By configuring other workbooks to use the same .odc file, you allow them to access the same data source.

You should not create a UDF that returns the name of the CSV file. Workbooks must access the data source before evaluating functions.

You should not insert a macro that prompts the user for the CSV file path. This would require users to always know the location of the CSV file.

You should not publish the CSV file as a document in SharePoint. This will not make the CSV file available to other workbooks.

Objective: Customizing Functionality by Using Profiles.
Sub-Objective: Display results from the user profile change log.

Single answer, multiple choice.

You add a Web reference to the UserProfileChangeService Web service in a Microsoft ASP.NET Web application.

You need to retrieve anniversary changes to all user profiles in the user profile store.

What should you do?

A.    Call the GetUserAllChanges Web method.
B.    Call the GetAllChanges Web method.
C.    Call the GetUserChanges Web method.
D.    Call the GetChanges Web method.

Answer:
D

Tutorial:
You should call the GetChanges Web method. This method accepts a UserProfileChangeQuery instance as a parameter that indicates the types of changes to query. This allows you to specify only anniversary changes. The method returns changes for all user profiles in the user profile store.

You should not call the GetUserAllChanges Web method. This method returns all changes for the specified user.

You should not call the GetAllChanges Web method. This method returns all changes for all users.

You should not call the GetUserChanges Web method. This method returns changes of the specified type for the specified user.
