Microsoft's new Business Portal now builds atop the Windows SharePoint Services that are part and parcel of the Windows 2003 Server operating system. That means the product, officially dubbed the Microsoft Business Solutions Business Portal 2.0, can now share SharePoint Web Parts, prebuilt code, useable on that platform. There are Microsoft and third-party Web Parts such as document libraries, calendars and editors. Release 2.0 is shipping now, Microsoft said.
