Question : Multiple users unable to view Datasheet in Sharepoint.
|
|
We are using Office '03, Sharepoint Server '03 and some users are on IE6, some on IE7. For the past few months we have had multiple users who have been unable to reach a Datasheet view in Sharepoint. For some of the users, the problem existed for a day or two, then everything worked as normal, for others, the problem persists. This problem continues to crop up with other users about every week. When attempting to access the view, a standard view appears folllowed by this message, "The list is displayed in Standard view. It cannot be displayed in Datasheet view for one or more of the following reasons: A datasheet component compatible with Windows SharePoint Services is not installed, your browser does not support ActiveX controls, or support for ActiveX controls is disabled." We have attempted multiple solutions suggested both on this site and on multiple other sites, none have been effective. All active X controls in the local intranet have been set to enable or prompt. The security level for local intranet was set to low. In the Registry Editor, Path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Active X Compatibility, we did not have a sub-key {65BCBEE4-7728-41A0-97BE-14E1CAE35AAE} to delete In the Registry Editor, Path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\microsoft\Office\11.0\Common\ProductVerson, the "PROInfo"=dword:00000001 already existed. We have tried importing the DLL files from Office 07, we have deleted the DLL files to have them downloaded again. I have attempted to repair office, reinstall (with and without uninstalling office)
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Try this. Found on MS forums:
Open the file ows.js (Path: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\60\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\1033) and search for the Method PortalPinToMyPage. After this insert following javascript code:
function RenderActiveX(str) { document.write(str); }
iisreset after saving file, or restart web application pool
