Hi guys
I am migrating a portal 2003 to another server and in the process taking the chance to move to sharepoint 2007 on the new server. Since the existing server has only on web app with very small amount of content i have exported most of the content to spreadsheets and imported. However, i have 2 discussion forums which I am finding a pain to migrate. Essentially what i tried was to save the site as a template with content included and import that into the moss web app as it doesn't allow you to export to spreadsheet. If I go to site settings and upload the template, even after restarting iis the template never shows up when i go to build a new site with it. I did manage to use the stsadm tool to import the template however when i select it for my site I get and error saying the template is invalid. I think this may be because it is being saved as a list template not a site template. Unfortunately in 2003 you can seem to edit anything in the datasheet view and you can only sort lists or links etc. I would have hoped that importing these discussion boards was fairly straight forward. I have googled around for a while and haven't been able to come up with any good info. I'd be very interested in anyone's feedback or help.
