Hey Script Guys:
I am analyzing SharePoint capabilities for a customer and there are some things that they need that is not there, but so far it seems it is but can't be seen.
First two things are:
'Stored Procedures' - That is a way from within a rule or workflow to interact with an interpretive host. Right now I use REXX, which has the INTERPRET function. I can write a script into a text element, send it there, and get the results. Handy, but rough. This is especially handy in validation situations, or re-mapping of data.
A way for metadata to be plugged into a file easily without using the Properties dialog (like read it from document fields, etc) so the Content Routing can be cleaned-up to be more fully automated.
Bear in mind I grew-up on Motorola Assembler, BAL and MASM to develop ASIC's, process controllers, operating systems and compilers, so alot of this shell programming is still a little weird. Be nice
