I just found this site a while ago when a buddy of mine recommended it to me. I’ve been an avid reader ever since.

Now that you have created the forms and all how do we connect them to a list is there some auto binding or database?

Steve, unfortunately those properties check the site permissions, and cannot be configured to check a custom source. My suggestion would be to declare those menu items programmatically in the code-behind (instead of in the HTML markup), and do your permission checking there. It’s probably more work to do it that way, but is probably the only way to do what you’re suggesting.

Check out this post — it goes into how to do create menus and menu items for the SPGridView programmatically. Good luck!

Thanks for the response,

I agree the PermissionsString and Permissions properties are based on the site permissions for that user – at least that’s what’s happening for me.

What I was hoping to do though is trim the drop down options based on the actual item the drop down is related to – not the site. So the user may have Contribute access to the site, but the actual item has unique permissions and they may only have Read access to the item itself. So I don’t want the user to see the “Delete” drop down option for items they don’t have permission to delete.

Steve, the PermissionsString and Permissions properties respect the permissions that are present on the site from which your page was accessed, and has nothing to do with what’s in the database. If the current user doesn’t have the appropriate permissions that are specified on the SharePoint site, then those menu options won’t appear. Does this make sense?

Question on security trimming the drop down menu options.

I tried the PermissionsString and Permissions properties but they don’t seem to work. I have a custom SPGridView on the sites home page that is populated by a query. I don’t think my grid knows the ‘context’ of the permissions since the items in the grid are just rows from a datatable?

It seems like the permission context is the web site, not the individual items in the grid. Any ideas?

Sucheta – the DateTimeControl is part of the Sharepoint.WebControls namespace. You can change the tag from wssawc to Sharepoint (since it should already registered on top of your page). See this URL for more information: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.webcontrols.aspx
