Is this SharePoint 2010? If so, do you have access to SharePoint workspace as part of Office 2010?
That will create an offline copy of your document libraries (and other supported lists). You can then cut-n-paste the lot out to a folder on your local disk.

I'll preface this by saying it's all approved by legal entities involved ... Customer is declaring Chapter 7, yet has sharepoint information that needs to be dumped off to files and shared with a variety of stakeholders. I'm generalizing, but basically: http://sharepoint/sites/site1 document content goes into folder site1 http://sharepoint/sites/site2 document content goes into folder site2 and there's about a bazillion /sites/insertname_here along with further nesting underneath each site with their own doc libraries. (by bazillion, I think I mean 'many dozens') Is there a magical way to recursively dump all that out, even if it's one big sloppy pile of documents instead of something relatively organized into folders that reflect the 'sites' subdirectories? I have tried a few tools via Google Fu (bamboo, spiefolder) but my kungfu is weak on sharepoint and there is a whole 'chapter 7' timing issue behind the scenes. Bamboo seems to work, but I think I have to keep retargeting manually each /darn/subdirectory/site and it's maddening and pretty time consuming. Wish I could figure out how to have it recursively troll through all of the subdirectories from http://sharepoint/* but believe I'm expecting the impossible in that regard. I don't care about anything in sharepoint outside of the actual documents (word, pdf, excel mostly) ... ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
