Monthly Folder Description

The Console application was developed to be a small tool that will allow you to generate a folder structure within a document library. It will create a folder in the root of the document library using the current year-month (e.g. "2008-05"). It then reads an XML file to determine what sub folders to create under the year-month folder structure. The XML file can also specify that a specific folder should have specific permissions applied to it. The concept is that you would schedule this application to run on your sharepoint server each month. The current design requires a separate copy of the application & configuration file for each document library. If there is interest, this can be updated to affect multiple document libraries. It is good practice to limit the number of items in a particular folder to less than 2,000. This application can simplify maintenance and ensure consistency when working with large libraries. When working with a small set of documents consider using metadata exclusively for categorizing files.
