This article by Michael Champion explains how to use LINQ to query, create,modify XML. This is definitely an easier and much more sophisticated way to code around XML then the DOM methods.

After struggling a bit I have finally figured out that using asp.net pages in InfoPath Taskpanes is not such a good idea when you need to update the form from the asp.net pages. When access the InfoPath DOM via script you get Access Denied errors. Using an html resource file on the other hand works fine. The reason behind this obviously is security - resource files get included in the form and gets executed as part of the form - hence no security issue. ASP.NET runs from another server or path and is not included in the form.
The way I got around this issue was to open the ASP.Net app from my resource file and copy all data to the clipboard. The resource file then get the data from the clipboard and update the InfoPath document from the clipboard data.

I would like the community to participate and help build and improve the methodology. So, please feel free to mail me any issues and comments or join the FAD group on CodePlex.

I recently had to uninstall the Guidance Automation Extensions to update my current version with the newer version. When uninstalling I keep getting an error to remove something called "Demo" first. Well, after struggling for a while, I came across some help which pointed me to the Windows Install Clean up application. This helped me to remove the bugger and install the latest GAX version.

I picked up the following issues in my management of a client's MOSS 2007 environment. Hope this will help anyone coming across the same issues:
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---> System.InvalidOperationException: ExecuteReader: Connection property has not been initialized.
This issue occur because the Project Server SQL user does not have access to the ProjectServer databases. The user should be given access to these.
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
This is an execute permission on the PWA SQL procs. The user should be added to the ProjectServer SQL group.
Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at
Microsoft.Office.Project.PWA.CommonControls.XmlGrid.CreateControlHierarchy(Boolean useDataSource)
at
Microsoft.Office.Project.PWA.CommonControls.XmlGrid.OnPreRender(EventArgs e)
This error occur when ProjectServer user details. The main cause is linked to migration of PWA 2003 to 2007 and users being checked out on projects. A quick fix is to update the checkoutby column in Resource table (ProjectServer_Published) database.

Sometimes it may be useful to delay an execution of some code until the result is actually needed, either because the result may not be needed at all or because we don’t want to block the program for a long time by executing all computations in advance and instead we want to execute the computations later, when we will actually need the result. This article explains how to do just that using C# and the .Net 3.0 framework:
