I am trying to program a timer job for sharepoint 2010. It's for my job at school and the sharepoint servers are located somewhere on campus where I don't have access to them.
I am new to visual studio, and when I try to create an empty sharepoint project, It tells me that I need to have sharepoint server installed on my machine in order to work with sharepoint.
I am just wanting to program a timer job for sharepoint in VS 2010, How do I do that without having sharepoint server on my machine?
