1.8. Where Are the Files?If you install SharePoint, create a few sites, then search your server's file system, you might be surprised that you can't find the web pages you just created.

Using SQL Server gives SharePoint advantages in performance, security, and indexing (for site searches). Remember what I said about lists being tables? Tables...SQL...does it start to make sense? |
