Workflow for Access

Task:
Assign permissions based on field values, i.e. ColumnName: Person name; Value: Semicoln seperated user names; PermissionValue: Contribute
Each item gets permission based on the above field values.

Idea 1:
Create eventhandler

Idea 2
Use workflow.
Association data - List of fields
- Permission values
Workflow get initiated every time an item is updated or added.
Uses association data and toggles permissions on the item.

NewMenu - CustomAction - LifeSaver

WSPBuilder goofup

It allowed me to add event handler feature at Site level
It is not supported by SharePoint
When we Build WSP -> Deploy from VS it says it is successful, but looks like it does not do all activities,
a. Add web config entries
Solution Management in CA shows Error on wsp deployment.

Removed erroneous event handler and everything worked.
