Hi, Can anyone tell me if it is possible to edit the native web-parts that come with sharepoint?

if so, where do i find the code for these webparts? I would ideally like to make a copy, and edit that to provide extra functionality.

The webpart in question is the one that shows a document library on a main site page.

Thanks in advance

Andrew

I haven't dug into it much, but I would think the page might be a binary executable. Have you dug through the directories where the SharePoint is deployed, to see if you can find the code for that webpart?

Hi Alex, Thanks for responding.
I assumed as much, but have not been able to find the code.

Is it even possible to "tinker" with those binary executables?

If anyone can help find these files, I will make the change and post the solution!
