Replace MOSS 2007 built-in Approval Workflow

Using the SharePoint ECM SDK I have managed to setup the Custom Approval Workflow sample - it works as expected.

However, co-existing with SharePoint default content approval seems to be quite confusing - especially to end-users. Both approval workflows appears in the end-user interface as outlined below:



In the example above I have approved the content using the Sample Appoval Workflow from ECM. Notice that the status is Approved for Sample Approval Workflow - whereas it is still pending for the built-in approval workflow.

If approving using the built-in approval buttons the system will notify me during the approval with the following message:






resulting in the following screen:



Now my content has been approved by the built-in approval workflow - whereas it is cancelled in my custom workflow.

Ideas very much appreciated.
