INTRODUCTION

Issues that the hotfix package fixes

This hotfix package fixes the following issues:

934253 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934253/ ) The Web File Properties dialog box displays incorrect properties for a document that is saved in a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 document library
934882 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934882/ ) A file that is attached to an e-mail message is not put in a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 document library
934613 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934613/ ) Error message when you try to install a feature in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0: "The 'UserSelectionMode' attribute is not allowed"
935605 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935605/ ) Issues that may occur when you use the volume shadow copy service (VSS) reference writer in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0

This hotfix package fixes the following issues that were not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

You add two List Web Parts to a page of a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Web site. The second List Web Part is connected to receive data from the first List Web Part. When you click the option button for an item in the first List Web Part, only that list item appears in the second List Web Part as expected. However, if you sort the results of the first List Web Part and then click the option button for a different item in the list, all list items unexpectedly appear in the second List Web Part.
You run an SQL query to change the properties for a user that you created on a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Web site. When you run the PeoplePicker tool to search for a user, the original user is unexpectedly found. You would expect the PeoplePicker tool to use the changes that you made to the user's properties when it searches for a user.
You browse a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Web site that contains different language subwebs. When you search one language subweb for an item that does not exist, you receive an error message as expected in that language subweb. However, when you search for an item that does not exist in a different language subweb, you unexpectedly receive an error message in the first language subweb that you searched.
When you use the ItemAdding event to add a new file to a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 document library, the path of the document library folder cannot be found.
When you upload a file to multiple Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 document libraries, an alert creation e-mail message is sent from the document libraries as expected. However, an alert notification e-mail message is sent from only one document library. You would expect an alert notification e-mail message to be sent from all the document libraries to which you uploaded the file.
When you run a program that uses the SPWorkflowManager.ForceDehydrateHttpContextWorkflows() event to work with files that are saved in a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 document library, the expected Web page is not displayed. Additionally, you receive the following error message:
Service Unavailable
If you set the Hint property of a Full Text Query object to OptimizeWithFullTextIndex and then query the computer that is running Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, the order of the results is sorted incorrectly.
