It's an extremely common scenario to be stuck with a bunch of managed properties on your MOSS development machines with no clear deployment path to production.

Theres a great tool on codeplex now: http://www.codeplex.com/sssppc

You'll be able to export all your managed and crawled properties, and import them back into another location. 

It's a very simple command line tool you can run on your MOSS server that exports in a simple XML format.

Enjoy!

My current MOSS 2007 client needs a large XSL transformation that generates a friendly set of nested tabs to display some BDC information after drilling into the search results. A new requirement came up, to display some aspx pages in iframes on their own tabs.

For various reasons an iframe wasn't really a possible solution for embedding an external resource, but there is a great alternative: The Object Tag.

<object classid="clsid:25336920-03F9-11CF-8FD0-00AA00686F13"
type="text/html" data="object.html" style="width:300px;height:200px;">    
<p>Fallback text</p> 
</object>

If you use the object tag in this way you can achieve the same functionality as an iframe, with pretty reasonable browser compatibility.

The only catch is that the parent document has to be in quirks mode to achieve a frame without a bevel or border.

You'll want to apply some styling to the child page to avoid the borders:

<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">html, body {border:0;overflow:visible;}</style>
<![endif]-->
