Many times you were developing a Visual Studio workflow for SharePoint. You simply create a task using the "CreateTask" activity. After a while, you need to update the task and you do not have a valid correlation token to use the "UpdateTask" activity, for example, because you are creating a task inside a replicator (I will blog about this later). for example, inside your workflow you write...

SPListItem item = workflowProperties.TaskList.Items.GetItemById(id)
item["Status"] = "Completed";
item.SystemUpdate();

The last line will give you error "This task is currently locked by a running workflow and cannot be edited", a possible work around for this issue, is to ensure that the workflow version number of the task is 1 before you update. Your code should look like the following...

SPListItem item = workflowProperties.TaskList.Items.GetItemById(id)
item["Status"] = "Completed";
item[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowVersion] = 1;
item.SystemUpdate();

Happy Coding:)

IE 9 is now available to download from here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/internet-explorer/products/ie/home 

This short video gives you a small sense of what we have been able to achieve as a company with the IE9 release.  To learn more about what’s in IE9, and to start experiencing a more beautiful web please visit: http://beautyoftheweb.com.

Here are 9 facts about IE9:

1. IE9 is the fastest adopted beta in IE browser history.  With over 40M downloads and a usage share on Windows 7 well over 2% globally, IE9 adoption has more than surpassed expectations.

2. IE9 is enterprise ready.  IE9 has the highest LOB compatibility pass rate of any product in MSIT dogfood history –  99% – coupled with one of the lowest IE helpdesk contact rates (number of helpdesk calls/number of installs) to date.  And for our customers, IE9 is ready to go with their Windows 7 deployments.

3. IE9 has the fastest JavaScript engine in the industry.  Script is one of many factors in performance. On a commonly used micro-benchmark, IE9’s improved JavaScript performance now holds the top spot in the industry, an improvement of almost 18 times from IE8.

4. IE9 is the only fully hardware-accelerated browser.  All graphics, video and text in IE9 are hardware-accelerated.  We re-architected IE9 to take full advantage of the Windows PC.  IE9 was the first to introduce this concept and other browsers have been scrambling to catch-up.  See the difference for yourself.

5. IE9 treats your favorite sites like apps.  The site is the center of attention in IE9’s new frame.  When you pin a site to the taskbar, your experience is even better.  Over 250 of the world’s top sites have already taken advantage of Jump Lists, notifications, and thumbnail previews to make their sites more app-like.  Web site publishers are seeing close to a 50% increase in engagement from their IE9 customers through pinned sites. 

6. IE9 protects against 99% of socially-engineered malware.  Malware is the #1 threat on the internet today.  With Microsoft SmartScreen and the new SmartScreen application reputation feature in IE9, no other browser comes close in protecting consumers from these real-world threats.  IE9 is 33 times better than Chrome and over 5 times better than Firefox. 

7. IE9 is the only browser with integrated online tracking protection for consumers.   Microsoft changed the browser and industry landscape with the introduction of IE9’s Tracking Protection, providing the only built-in browser solution protecting consumers today.

8. IE9 is leading with site-ready HTML5 support.  IE9 is all in when it comes to delivering developers new standards-based capabilities with HTML5.   Microsoft co-chairs the W3C HTML5 working group and during the IE9 release has contributed almost 6000 test cases to the W3C and international standards bodies.  Currently, IE9 has the best conformance with W3C HTML5.

9. IE9 has had the strongest press in IE history:   Here is a small sample of what reviewers are saying:

The Set-EmailAddressPolicy cmdlet is needed for this.

Open the Exchange Management Shell and enter the following command:

This will show a list of Recipient Policies that are available in your Exchange organization. We can use this output by piping it into the Set-EmailAddressPolicy cmdlet:

The Recipient Policies are now converted you can open them in the Exchange Management Console. Please note that the examples mentioned above are pretty simple policies. If you have more complex policies please test this thoroughly. If you have any Mailbox Manager policies, these have to be removed.
