There seems to be no actual figure on how many column a list can handled in Office 2007. Ishai Sagi has done some test to seek the magic number, however it seems to be able to create more than 2000 and more column in a single list... The downside, performance degrade when access the columns.. For full details, find out more at his blog...

He has written quite a number of interesting "finding" of Office 2007...
Finally, I have taken the radical step of uninstalling my Office 2003 and install the Office 2007 client suite in place of it. That happens 40 hours ago and now I have uninstall the one of the component and install back the old component.
It Outlook!!! It kept popping out the “send error report” and restarting my outlook that I give up using it. It happen around 95% that whenever I send out a mail, the error will appear. It went on to the extent that I can even predict when it happens.
Do in the end, I have to uninstall that and reinstall back the old outlook 2003. It working fine now and I was surprise that both Office 2007 and Office 2003 can reside together without conflict. Wow, why am I surprise? J Maybe have see the error one day too much.
Bad point (Outlook 2007 B2)
- Slow response when clicking on URL link, sending email…
Good point (Outlook 2007 B2)
- Nice interface J
I have not try out the rest of the office 2007 features, maybe B2 TR then..
For the rest, it seems fine, getting use to the new UI interface…
Window Xp that can run 3 applications at any one time and does not recognise more than 128mb ram and 40 gb hdd? Hmm.. I don't think I can survive an hour on it..

Recently while messing around with MS Exchange 2003, we encounter a problem changing the Recipient Update service to another domain controller. However it throws out an exception...
Solution:
Manually change the Domain Controller used by RUS for the domain by using ADSIEdit and configure the attribute msExchServer1NetworkAddress.
1. Install Windows support tools.
2. Open ADSIEdit by running ADSIEDIT.MSC.
3. Find Configuration->Services->Microsoft Exchange-><org name>->Address Lists Container->Recipient Update Services-><The RUS you need to modify>
4. Open its properties and modify the msExchServer1NetworkAddress attribute.
In order to verify if the RUS is working or not, you can create a new user with a mailbox on this domain, and check if RUS stamps this user.
Well it the first post of my blog, I have been pondering for a long time of whether to start a blog for quite some time and lately seems to have the urge to do so for a couple of reasons....(1) some of the technical issues that I have faced lately has been mention in newsgroup, blog and/or various place on www, however no mention of a clear solution ...and therefore I would like to post it on thisblog to be of use to the rest of the IT community as well...(2) exploring features of the MS Office 2007 brings about many exciting and interesting to share with everyone and learn together....(3) last but not least grumbling/rumbling when I am not in a good mood ![Smile [:)]](/emoticons/emotion-1.gif)
Oh yes, a big thanks to Kit Kai for creating a space here for me to blog....
