Hi, Martin Kearn has a great article about changing content types for libraries programatically via a feature. You would have to modify the code to also act upon the items within the libraries, and change their content-types (adding any required field information into the content-type fields for each item). The page is at: http://blogs.msdn.com/martinkearn/archive/2007/11/14/code-callout-featur es-how-to-make-automated-modifications-to-sites-after-they-have-been-dep loyed.aspx Cheers, Nigel Witherdin Senior Support Analyst Eversheds Direct Dial: +44 (0) 84 549 754 17 Mobile: +44 (0) 7738 553256 www.eversheds.com <http://www.eversheds.com/>

Like in Excel. There should be a way in code....Or a product like Echo maybe. On Tue, Apr 1, 2008 at 2:35 PM, Merton, Ryan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hey Deon! Yes, once you have added the content type to the list (you know how to do that right?), then when you edit the properties of each document, you can select which content type it is. I have not found a way to do this in batch/bulk.

I have migrated a doc library from SPS 2003 to MOSS. All the docs have been created in MOSS as a standard document content type. I would now like to convert or change these existing documents to a custom document content type. Does anyone have any suggestions on how best to achieve this?
