NJ DMV Update - Nothing related to Sharepoint 2010

Anyone who lives in NJ & has applied for H1B extension and if the extension is delayed for some reasons by HomeLand Security beyond 90 days (upto which the driver's license would be valid). You still can use the H1B Extension reciept notice original ( I797c - CaseType I129) to extend it to 240 days. A lot of the DMV's in new jersey doesn't know and all they expect is a valid I-94 which is pure dumbness. If you are in the same situation and looking to get this 240 days extension, please goto 45,Killmer Rd,Edison NJ. They do this right..no hazzles. It happened for my collegue, we nearly went to 3 DMV's before we went to Killmer Rd. Hope this helps. Good Luck :)

SharePoint 2010 Document Library won't open PDFs

Image
I just discovered, by default Sharepoint 2010 document library doesn't open PDF files or any other file types that MS doesn't trust anymore. The library will force you to download the PDF file since it's not trusted. You can do the following to resolve this : 1. Goto Central Administartor>Application Management>Manage Web Application>Select the Web App>Click General Settings 2. Change the 'Browser File Handling' from 'Strict' to 'Permissive'.
