Another great night last night. Barry spoke on Duck Typing. Or Duct Taping, if like me you get your worms ..err... words mixed up. Is it the same as using the old vbs var? Not really, and Barry Dorrans gave a good overview of the specifics and its uses.

The main speaker was Dave McMahon, who gave a brilliant talk on office integration. He demonstrated how to use Access (an always underrated tool) to create queries across SQL, XML, text files, Excel spreadsheets.

He then went on with a demonstration of how to create a web service within the SharePoint site that queried lists.

This was my favourite talk so far at the Oxford NextGen.
