Hi
I have Windows Server 2003 R2 installed then i installed Office 2007 SUITE System without SharePoint Designer.
then i installed Share point Services 3.0 with all the PreReq like .Net 2.0,.Net 3.0 etc.After that i installed SharePoint Designer and then Sql Server Developer Edition and Visual Studio 2005.
I have designed two three portals using Sharepoint Services 3.0 .Now i moved to SharePoint Designer for WorkFlows and Other Designing but it doesnot show any option for Creating a New WorkFlow in the File Menu.However i have seen a number of Articles where it is shown that a New WorkFlow can be created from the start menu.
Then i moved to Visual Studio 2005 Designer for WorkFlows.
i have installed two additional things.
1) Visual Studio 2005 extensions Windows WorkFlow Foundation
2) Visual Studio 2005 extensions for Sharepoint Services 3.0
I made a WorkFlow using the Article given below and i have followed the same sequence of steps as taken in the following article for deployment. http://www.developer.com/mgmt/article.php/11085_3652346_2
The Workflow application is compiled Successfully and i have installed it successFully but it is not activated and not shown in the workFlow Area in the Sharepoint Portal Site.
