Re: Missing Modified field in site
Hi Paul, Searching into files in hive for the guid will probably tells you which feature they are coming from and also whether the fields feature has the definition of not. Besides, you should be fine if you add the missing fields yourself as long as you keep the definition the same (including name and guid). Regards, Shahram.

415 Error, Unsupported Media Type on TMG/WAC
Hi All, We have a single server office web app 2013 (WAC) farm installed internally which works with SharePoint 2013 Enterprise with no problem. I checked the health status and it was reported as healthy. We exposed this environment with TMG for external users which provides single sign on functionality using Forefront TMG form based login page by assigning a single listener to all 3 published webs (SharePoint Portal, My Site and WAC). Everything works great except when I try to open a PowerPoint file on the browser (PowerPoint Web App). It tries for a while and then ends up with following error: *Either you've lost network connectivity or our server is too busy to handle your request. Please check your network connection and try again later.* Looking at TMG logs, Request Status 415 (Unsupported Media Type) is logged with no more details. Similar error was found numerous time in ULS on WAC server. I couldn't find any hind by googling this problem. Any idea where the problem is sitting? Again, this problem happens for PowerPoint files only, Word, Excel and OneNote are all fine.

Re: Refresh a Choice or Lookup Field without losing Form Data
Hi Nigel, I would go with Managed Metadata field and open Termset since SharePoint provides the exact interface you need for this requirement. It's much cleaner than look up to a list. In case of using a Choice Field, you need to update the column definition which is not an ideal solution specially if user needs to update an existing option (typo or change of mind) later down the track. I found that the update to options will not be pushed through automatically to list items already using the old option, however with MM field that's not a problem. Regards, Shahram.

I have a user requirement to provide a dropdown on new/edit item forms that allows the user to add a new dropdown option on the fly. I would personally prefer it to be a choice field, but I understand that perhaps a lookup field might better suit. So the point being the user uploads a document, fills out the form up to a certain dropdown, discovers the dropdown doesnt have the option he/she requires, is able to add the option to the dropdown and select it, and continue completing the form. OOTB with choice and lookup they would have to close the form, go and add the new option to the choice field or the source list, then edit the uploaded documents properties and set the metadata. I know I could achieve this with Managed Metadata and an open termset, but I dont really want to create a termset for all the dropdowns. So, any suggestions?

Re: Crawling files in external application
The document URL is exposed as a property. But I have a feeling that SharePoint crawler take the URL as plain text since it comes as system.string field. So, the question is how to let the crawler know this is a hyperlink and required to be indexed. SharePoint designer doesn't let you change the field type when creating the external content type from SQL database. SQL Server doesn't seem to have any kind of field type to be translated as such either. Regards, Shahram.
