This may not sound like a coherient question, but I need to find some way to connect to a hosted SharePoint website and pull data from it to a C# application. I suppose it could be from any database or list program, but since we already have our data stored on our SharePoint 2007 site, it would probably just be easiest to incorporate it somehow.
My question is this: where is the best resource regarding how to get started with this? I've started going through this link to try to get some understanding, but it's still somewhat foreign to me. (I've never used SharePoint before (obviously), so I'm still trying to acquire some knowledge about how it interacts with standalone .NET applications.)
Essentially, I'll have a standalone application deployed on an environment that doesn't host the SharePoint server, which means (I think) I need to call the Windows Sharepoint Services. However, that's the extent of my "knowledge". Any more guidance would be greatly appreciated.
