Many thanks for your help Paul and Matthew Definately sounds like we are all thinking the same way as I've checked those things. Pach level was fine as it's been moved to the same farm - however missing feature references etc in the content, as it originally came from 2007 and was then upgraded, is a distinct possibility. We've also tried without identity, security, versions and dependecies - same darn com error. It's an RTM 2010, so I'm just investigating if there have been any import/export/content migration fixes making SP1 + Oct CU worthwhile - none i can see so far. However, if there is some sort of server issue an upgrade may be worthwhile. The GL command didn't help, as it does exactly the same stuff under the skin, so threw the same unhelpfull error. I'll have a look at the Chris O'Brian content migration wizard next.

I’d start by ditching dependencies and security on the export and see if it will import OK.

Any advice on the quickest way to trouble-shoot the below error when importing a list that was exported from a different farm? Are the ULS logs the place to start, or does the import show all the info available to stdout? Or does anyone recommend a tool or technique that gives generally better rsults/insights that the standard import/export - e.g. gl-exportlist and gl-importlist?
