This section explains how to modify the CorasWorks web part DWP files and explains the different DWP properties that are available for each of the CorasWorks web parts.
Microsoft® Windows® SharePoint™ Services uses XML documents with a .dwp extension as a way to import and export web parts so they can be shared by users. These files capture a snapshot of the property settings for a web part, and a reference to the assembly and class used to create it.
There are two ways you can modify DWP files:
• You can modify a web part's base DWP file which resides on the server – To learn about modifying base DWP files, see the Server DWP Modification topic below
• You can modify an instance of a web part's DWP file, which resides as a separate file that you import into a WSS site - To learn more about creating and using individual state web parts, see the Site DWP Modification topic
NOTE: The Summer 2005 release does not support DWP modification of LCIDXML for roll-up web parts and navigation web parts. If you want to make localization changes to any of those web parts, please use the Localization tab on the administration interface.
