I'm desperately searching for a tool allowing me to copy documents with their old versions from a SharePoint 2003 to a SharePoint 2007 site. Do you know about any simple (and preferably free) tool which does this? ...
I am looking for a query that will work on Sharepoint 2003 to show me all the documents created/touched by a given userID. I have found tables with the documents (Docs) and tables for users (UserInfo, UserData) but the relationship between seems a bit odd - there are 99,000 records in our userdata table, and 12,000 records in userinfo -...

Thanks in advance! I was wondering if you SharePoint architects/experts out there could help me nail down the specifics and concerns around upgrading an existing SharePoint 2003 deployment to SharePoint 2007. I know this is general and vague and the steps/problems will depend greatly on the current SharePoint deployment. Any help woul...

I have coded a solution that uses the 2007 API to traverse the SharePoint object model. Now I need to support SP 2003 as well. What is the best way to do this? Is it possible / recommended to use the 2007 api to get access to a 2003 SharePoint Farm? If I use the 2007 api, do I have to use the deprecated classes to (for instance) refer...
As all you know, Sharepoint 2003 has simple access rights privilages. You can only grant rights (Reader, Contributor, Administrator) but unfortunatelly you can not deny access. So, if someone is not welcome in SharePoint portal there is no simple way to restrict access for him. I found nice articles how to secure access to certain page...
I wonder if there is a way to hide some document library lists that are shown when the user navigates to the "All Site Content" page in SharePoint, and I wonder if there is a programmatic way to achieve this. (If possible using WSS). I need to hide many lists from this view, these lists will be accessed from the links inside a link lis...
I have a data layer project which receives a byte array that needs to be persisted. The byte array will be stored in Sharepoint 2003, so I'd like to be able to call a SP web service from within the data layer (keeping all persistence in this layer). Here's the approach I am considering, if there are any comments on it. http://blogs.ms...

For my company, we have a few extranet sites built in SharePoint Portal 2003 for vendors to collaborate on documents with us. We have the database's on on server and the sites hosted on another server (so two servers are involved). However, recently they started receiving "Operation Aborted" errors when going to the site and/or "Render F...
I have 2 SharePoint servers, an old pilot SP 2003 server and a new SP 2007 production server. One of the sites in the 2003 server is invaluable and contains a couple of advanced custom lists and document areas that would be a real pain to manually transfer over. I've looked everywhere for a solution to EASILY move or copy the site from...
