	Add child controls to Web Parts
	Render HTML for a Web Part
	Create and display custom properties

Module 5: Connecting Web Parts

This module explains how to connect Web Parts. The Web Part infrastructure provides rich support for communication between Web Parts. Developers can use standard interfaces to create Web Parts that can exchange information with each other.

Lessons

	Overview
	Web Part Connections
	Web Part Interfaces

	Define both default security permissions for Windows SharePoint Services
	Designate Web Parts as safe to make them available on the virtual server
	Use code access security to ensure your Web Part assemblies get required permissions
	Identify Windows SharePoint Services default trust level values
	Edit and create policy configuration files

Module 8: Exploring the Windows SharePoint Services Object Model

In this module, you will use Visual Studio .NET to program the Windows SharePoint Services object model, which is integrated with Microsoft ASP.NET.
