Business Data Catalog (BDC) column values must be provided with the appropriate filter name to use in order to query the LOB records. You must provide the BDC column value in the format: &lt;filter name&gt;:&lt;value&gt;. For example: &#8220;Company Name:NorthWind&#8221;, where <em>Company Name <\/em>is the filter name and<em> NorthWind <\/em>is the value you are searching for and would like to assign to the column.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">2)<span style=\"font: 7pt\/normal 'Times New Roman'; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">You can upload documents to <strong>Link to Document<\/strong> SharePoint default content type.

The earlier versions required that the user must be consistent in UNC Path or Mapped Drive letter usage when creating the import task (cannot specify both interchangeably). This new version automatically resolves UNC Path and Mapped Drives so that users can use them interchangeably without the need to fix this error and re-import documents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Download free trial of Dockit &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vyapinsoftware.com\/products\/sharepoint-migration\/dockit\/sharepoint-migration-tools\">https:\/\/www.vyapinsoftware.com\/products\/sharepoint-migration\/dockit\/sharepoint-migration-tools<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">For any new feature suggestions or feedback, please <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vyapinsoftware.com\/support\/softwarefeaturerequest\">contact us<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have released a new and improved version of DocKIT for SharePoint 2007 about a week back.
