Hi everyone, I would like to know if there is any way to develop a connector for sharepoint that enables it to index external data sources, like some (or all) rows from an SQL Server Table in a corporate database or in an Oracle database ou in a remote data available thru any external component. Any ideas that don't need to generate flat files versions of those documents (or information) on disc? I would like to treat any information as a indexed document in SPS, like many DM software does (like HummingBird) as well SPS does with those content sources: - Microsoft Exchange Server public folders - File share - Web content - Windows SharePoint Services-based sites and SharePoint Team Services-based sites - Lotus Notes database Thanks in advance, Srgio
