SharePoint Batch Check In updated

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 14:24:58 GMT

Check in documents using SharePoint Batch Check In.

SharePoint Batch Check In lets you check-in files without compromising document versioning integrity.

SharePoint Batch Check In solves this problem by allowing you to bulk check in a group of checked-out files all at one time, as well as upload & simultaneously check in multiple new documents.

The name of the ibmmx model metadata file generated for a Code First model will use the DataSourceKeyName attribute value if provided.
