Moving form libraries from SP 2003 to 2007

  Asked By: Pankaj Das         Date: Sep 21, 2007      Category: MOSS      Views: 240
 

I work in Customer Services for my company. Our IT department is
implementing Sharepoint 2007 server and I have five very large form
libraries (InfoPath forms) in a 2003 WSS which are used as a Knowledge
Base for system problems and resolutions, we call it eSolutions. Our IT
department wants me to migrate them all to the new server.

My problem is that when I do a multi-file upload from the new v3 WSS I
become the "originator" of all the eSolution forms. I would like the
original Engineers to maintane their respective credit for creating and
or resolving their eSolutions. The Engineering and Product Support
departments have MBO's (manage by objectives) around how many
eSolutions they have resolved.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, my IT department is clueless.

I was looking for something similar, but the "replicator" is too costly
for us, any other cheaper alternatives?

None that I am aware of, but you could write your own using the SharePoint
object model or web services.

Although this will not capture metadata nor version history at this
time, see my free SPIEFolder sample at
http://www.codeplex.com/spiefolder if you want some starter code for
this, or a simple ready to go free tool for just exporting and
importing

Then again, all you might need is just to export and import the raw
forms.

This seems like a good start for what I was looking for. And I'd
love to hear about its new versions in future.
