I am actually a newbie to MOSS 2007 that's why i'm still having my <a href="http://www.solartechnj.com/sch_microsoft_sharepoint_training_moss.asp" rel="nofollow">SharePoint Training</a> on http://www.solartechnj.com/sch_microsoft_sharepoint_training_moss.asp and i really enjoyed it a lot. you’re right Paul… the problem with other people is that they tend to make complex things more complicated. that’s my very problem when it comes to MOSS 2007 lots of people here on the net are trying to explain that tool but sometimes they make it more confusing because of their nose-bleeding diagrams! but with that link you have included on your post i understand it better.
