Any Sharepoint Developers

[ringo747]

I need some help with creating a document workspace from within a sharepoint workflow. I am trying to write a custom action for sharepoint designer which will allow me to select a document and then automatically send to document workspace (similar to you can click in the GUI). All I can find is a document workspace web service.

Would it be possible to use this web service from within a sharepoint designer workflow? I plan to write this as a custom workflow action which will then be added to sharepoint designer to tie in with the other workflow settings. Anyone else do this kind of thing?

Hi,thanks for the info. I have had a quick through that but it seems that the code there will add a new file to the document workspace. I want to add an existing document to a workspace so not sure that will work.

I haven't had any joy adding a web service reference to my project. I have created a workflow activity library but I cant seem to use a web service reference to it. Do you know if you can do this? The problem is that I want to use my action within Sharepoint Designer and so hardcoding a web reference in an app.config file is not ideal.

Rather than start a new thread I am resurrecting this one. Anyone else here work with sharepoint in a development role? Im keen to find out about what resources you use for training and any recommendations on books/manuals that get you up to speed on sharepoint quickly. I am particularly interested in the development side of things such as WF workflows etc.
