Sharepoint New/Edit Item stuck on Date field
Hi,
This issue is occurring across all Sharepoint Lists in my organisation – Sharepoint is getting stuck on a date field when adding a new item or editing an existing one. It highlights one Date field, like below, and doesn’t let me click to edit any of the other fields.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Scheduled Duration is incorrect: reasons unknown
I have added the screenshot from my project. ofcourse it is an exception that i am defining the tasks in seconds (for example, 0.01 for a task)
1. i am not able to enter anything below 0.01 Hrs. is it the lower limit what can be entered into project ?
2. the 0.01 task duration is shown as 0.02 hrs scheduled duration. this happens only with this particular robot resource based tasks. can some one clarify, where is the error
thanks in advance,
Subash

Mail being Sent out via Server with no Send Connector configured
Exchange 2019 on prem – fully patched in a 2 Server DAG config
Only server 1 is configured to send out e-mails via the Send Connector
ie – in Scoping of the Send Connector, only server 1 is listed in the Source Server
However, occasional e-mails are going out via server 2
They are getting bounced because we dont; have reverse dns and other things set up for it
Why are some e-mails going out via Server 2 ?
Thanks,
Steve

Unity App Stuck Loading On HoloLens 2
I am following this document and this tutorial to test AR on a HoloLens 2, and I go to the part where I have a Unity game with all the proper setup (ie. build settings are correct, I used Unity AR feature tool, etc.) and with 2 squares.
I built the project and opened the solution, and then I set the configuration to “Release,” platform to “ARM64,” and set it to “Device” because I have the HoloLens directly connected to my laptop.
I selected the Unity app solution and right-clicked it to “Set as Startup Project.” Then, I pressed the green button next to “Device” to build and deploy it.
The first time, I got prompted to enter a pin after a bit, which I did, and once the deployment was done, the app showed in the “All Apps” section, but once I clicked on it, I got a window that had a white background with a box with an X in the middle of the screen. On top, there is a blue circle with a white loading circle that was loading for forever.
I tried rebuilding it multiple times and double-checking my Unity build settings, but those were correct.
How can I fix this issue?
I’m using Unity version 2022.3.20f1.
Thank you,
Avinash Devineni

Grouping dates by quarter using Copilot in Excel
Hi everyone, over the last few weeks we have had a series of posts to show you some of the things that are possible to do with Copilot in Excel. Today I will start with a (fictional) list of books and book sales. I would like to group sales by quarters to see the impact on my business.
Table of book sales with columns for Book Id, Release date, Author, Category, Publishing Branch, User Rating and Sales
I ask Copilot:
I want to see sales by quarter based on the release date
Copilot in Excel pane showing the above prompt and the response showing a chart of Sales by year and quarter of release date as well as the text summary below.
The total sales by quarter based on the release date are as follows: Q1: $1,599,100, Q2: $4,672,300, Q3: $36,100, Q4: $576,100. See the PivotChart above for more details.
I click on the “Add to a new sheet” button in the Copilot pane and this PivotTable and chart are inserted giving me the view of book sales by quarter that I was looking for.

Over the coming weeks I will continue to share more examples of what you can do with Copilot in Excel.

Notes Tab in Standard Channels
Hello,
According to this page, Microsoft Teams users will soon get a Notes tab powered by OneNote. This tab will be added by default to the tabs bar across the top of new standard channels.
I don’t see this Notes tab when creating a standard channel. Did this change?
I am trying to determine the best way of taking notes in a Team and in a MS Team Meeting, so doing a little investigating. Found this page as well and Notes is not available in my meeting menu. Also found this page but don’t have the option of adding an agenda, tasks, notes here either. I assume none of these features are available for EDU.
Is the best option to add the OneNote app to the Team and to the Meeting?
Thanks for any insight on this.
Debbie

Unable to connect to windows mssql 2022 update 14 running on opposite node
We are in the attempt of creating a Always On, 2 node, setup. We were sucessful in windows 2016 and mssql. We reloaded to Windows 2022 server, and MSSQL Server 2022 Developer Edition.
We get MSSQL and SSMS loaded on both boxes. We create a database and create and grant the required DB user. On node1, we connect to DB just fine with SSMS using SQL Authentication.
On Node 2 we use SSMS to try to connect to node1 (with SQL Authentication) without success, just the generic network error. Our DBA has MSSQL server at his house he tests with, and we cannot find the differences. we can ping node1 from 2, we can \ node1 from node2 (i know different mechanisms), but network is not the issue. we can rdp to each other.
Is there something new in SQL Server 2022 that we are overlooking? We cannot connect to the DB running on NODE1 from other SQL developer tools either.
1) The SQL server properties are set to permit remote login, (have not enabled Always On yet, until we can get basic connectivity tested).
2) MS Defender Firewall has been disabled.
3) NODE1 Can connect to itself without issue.
4) NO corp external firwall in the way, had them check that.
5) NO Domain involved, just a workgroup between the 2 server.

Managing Googlebot/Bingbot Exclusions in Security JavaScript without Impacting SEO
I need to add an important security related javascript on my HTML pages that detects a few signals like presence of selenium variables in widnow/document objects. Once something is detected, a request is sent to my backend to capture this data.
Googlebot / bingbot may also emit some of these signals (I am tracking 20+ signals) & these bots make thousands of visits to my various webpages. So somehow I do not want to execute the script for these bots.
1. If I use useragent, either on backend to totally exclude this script for googlebot or on frontend to not execute the script – will it be safe for my SEO? Can Googlebot penalize this assuming script is used for cloaking etc.?
2. How bot detection companies like Human Security (PerimeterX) manage this? Do they track even Googlebot activity?

Set a reminder flow in SharePoint Document library is currently not working
A customer pointed out to me last week that it is not possible to set a reminder flow in document libraries. I checked this today in our tenant’s existing and new team websites – it is true.
When you click on Automate > Set a reminder > [name of column], nothing happens.
The column “Review” here is Date and time for sure
This worked exactly this way weeks ago. I noted the steps in my user-guides.

RSVPs show up incorrectly
Hi everyone,
Does anyone else have inconsistent RSVP displays?
We’ve been experiencing this for a few weeks quite randomly where a member of the team RSVPd in a certain way (Yes/No) and Outlook for everyone shows that they “have not responded.”
See an example of my own RSVP (Yes, I attend), which shows as Not Responded.
Is this a bug?
