Content Types - Exporting and importing

2009-11-02 Thread MacDonald, Mike
I created a list with A LOT of columns - now I want to save it as a content type so that the fields are accessible when creating new content types at the top level on other sites. Is that possible ? ___ ozmoss mailing list ozmoss@ozmoss.com

Mike, if you're not that keen on coding you can grab SPSourcehttp://spsource.codeplex.com/ to suck down the columns as XML schema definitions for re-use in a Site Column featurehttp://blogit.create.pt/blogs/andrevala/archive/2008/03/26/SharePoint-2007-Deployment_3A00_-Site-Column-Features.aspx.

LOL Paul :P You're a man full of ideas. It may be possible to create a page, which allows you to reparent a content type. It would just need a custom page and some code :) From: ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com [mailto:ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com] On Behalf Of Paul Noone Sent: Tuesday, 3 November 2009
