How to move document library sharepoint 2007

Question

We have one client requirement to move document library from one subsite to another. While moving we should move all documents along with all the custom columns with its values as it is. All the column value must remain same eg column name Modified By should contain same name after moving also. in short like cut-paste How we can do this?

Thanks, Rushikesh

Answer 1

Try Sharepoint Content Deployment Wizard.

Answer 2

You can save the list as a template and check the box to 'include content'. Then just copy over the template and create a new doc. lib. using it. It will have all of the documents as well as the same columns, values for those columns, etc.

Answer 3

Use Data Synchronisation Studio http://www.simego.com/Products/Data-Synchronisation-Studio You will need to use the extra add-in to keep the modified dates the same

Answer 4

There's a tool that allows you to copy all the properties from one list to another. It's called Sharegate (www.share-gate.com). There's a free trial that only limits the number of items that you can copy. The full version of the software is sold at 375$ which is a no brainer for most of the company. Hopefully, this will help you!

Answer 5

definitely saving as a template and check the box to save all content, then going to the new site and upload the template@@ I hard somewhere that could be done in explorer view but...never tried this approach...
