Using Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server enables your team to create websites to share documents and keep track of project tasks, discussions and contacts. Build web pages for your Sharepoint site to communicate project details and other information. Creating a page involves adding web parts, also known as a Web Widgets, which are ASP.NET (a web application framework developed by Microsoft) controls, to the page. The web part allows you to specify (and modify) the appearance and behavior of the web page. For example, you may want to build a web page that contains a clock displaying the time in a particular location.
