i done as u have said.i have sucessfully deployed to sharepoint too.but when i click the button i got a error like this "An unexpected error has occurred.
Web Parts Maintenance Page: If you have permission, you can use this page to temporarily close Web Parts or remove personal settings. For more information, contact your site administrator."
How can i solve this.
#2. If you are using the same code as is... your custom list name must be 'punchlist' as on the constant 'punchlistname' and also have the columns as mentioned.
#3. I guess you must have already verified the safecontrol entries etc.
#4. Try to debug and see where it is breaking.
its working now.
But now i have doubt now.
Now we have 2 buttons punch in and punch out.When i click punch out its got inserted into another coulmn(not in the one where punch in is inserted)
How can i make Puchin and Puch out to a single row.
or, get the ID of the punchin row, update punchout column of the same row.
