  • FilterFieldn to specify the name of a field in the database, where n is an integer that is limited only by the number of fields allowed in the database table or by the length allowed for the URL field.

  • FilterValuen to specify the string value on which to filter a field, where n is an integer that is limited only by the length allowed for the URL field.

Using the URL Protocol

Embedding a request in a URL is a basic mechanism for issuing a method and its parameters to a server running Windows SharePoint Services. The syntax for using this mechanism is as follows:

http://Server_Name/[sites/][Site_Name/]_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?Cmd=
   Method_name[&Parameter1=Value1&Parameter2=Value2...]

The following example exports the schema of the list specified by a GUID:

http://Server_Name/[sites/][Site_Name/]_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?Cmd=
   ExportList&List=GUID

This example displays the Discussions list as a CAML file:

http://Server_Name/[sites/][Site_Name/]_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?Cmd=
   Display&List=GUID&XMLDATA=TRUE

The next example exports the Discussions list to a Microsoft Excel worksheet. Note that the GUID for the associated view must be assigned to the View parameter.

http://Server_Name/[sites/][Site_Name/]_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=
   109&Using=_layouts/query.iqy&List=GUID&View=GUID&CacheControl=1
