Download and evaluate CopyMove for SharePoint
 
Changes since V1.2.7:
  • Added configuration options to allow administrators to select the default state of the checkboxes 'Include version history' and 'Include item permissions' on the CopyMove target selection page. The new options have been addeded to the CopyMove settings page in Central Adminstration.
  • Added configuration options to allow administrators to enable or disable selected warnings for the end-users. The new options have been addeded to the CopyMove settings page in Central Adminstration.
  • Fixed bug "User cannot be found" that showed when copying/moving list items with attachments created or edited by an orphaned user.
  • Fixed bug "Invalid file name The file name you specified could not be used. It may be the name of an existing file or directory, or you may not have permission to access the file". This error surfaced when copying/moving list items from a list sub-folder to a sub-folder in another list. Document libraries were not affected by this bug.
  • Fixed bug "Value does not fall within the expected range"
  • Added Russian translation of the user interface.
  • Fixed versioning issue where empty list item fields with historical values in previous versions were not emptied in the target item, which then contained the historical value.
  • Fixed problem where the left-hand item selection pane did not always match the current list view. The problem showed when a user navigated back to a page other than the first page and when using column filters.
  • Added support for adding sub sites to the target selction tree. In previous versions users could only add entire site collections to the tree.
  • Fixed bug "Could not import file. One or more properties on file version does not match the current data type of the property".

 

CopyMove V1.2.7 Released

January 21, 2010

New maintenance release with a few bug fixes, an extension of the built-in free license plus a new config. option to leave moved items in the recycle bin.

Download and evaluate CopyMove for SharePoint
 
Changes since V1.2.6:
  • Extended the free and built-in license for 1 server and 1 user. It will now expire Jan 21st 2011. The free license in earlier versions will expire April 1st 2010.
  • Fixed bug "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
  • Fixed bug "Index was out of range" on the target selection screen. The error is rare and has only been reported for one specific document library.
  • Fixed small memory leak at one place where an SPWeb object was not disposed as expected. The bug can over time with no application pool recycles and heavy use of CopyMove, cause stability problems on SharePoint Web front-end servers.
  • Added configuration option to leave source items in the SharePoint Recycle Bin on move operations.
  • Fixed bug where the content on Wiki pages was lost when copied or moved.
  • Added check to allow moving and copying list items with text type fields to another list with DateTime type fields having the same internal field names. This triggered an error in previous versions. CopyMove attempts to convert the DateTime values stored in text fields to the DateTime fields in the target list. If the string is not a valid date, it is simply skipped and the target field will be empty.
  • Added Italian translation of the user interface.

 

Italian Translation

November 13, 2009

An Italian user has shared his Italian translation of CopyMove with us.

Thanks to Mr. Riccardo Dozzo from www.opensoftware.it for sharing an excellent Italian translation of the CopyMove user interface.
 
It has now been incorporated in the product and will be available in version 1.2.7 of CopyMove scheduled for release middle of December 2009. However, you can already obtain the translation now by contacting support@sharepointproducts.com
 
We would also like to invite users from other countries to help us translate CopyMove into other languages. The effort will be awarded with a free CopyMove production license for one server and unlimited users.

October 27, 2009

New maintenance release with important changes.

Download and evaluate CopyMove for SharePoint
 
Changes since V1.2.5:
  • Removed user warning when a content type of a list item is not installed in the target list. CopyMove will now just select the content type with the best matching content type id.
  • Fixed bug where list items lost their content type if moved/copied to another list having the same content type installed - but with a different name. CopyMove now matches content types by the content type id instead of the content type name.
  • Fixed time zone bug where DateTime fields on list items where shifted by the UTC time zone difference when copied or moved.
  • Fixed bug "Import validation error! Missing related list item version for the file version". This error occurred when the version labels on a SPFile object were not aligned with the version labels on the associated SPListItem object.
  • Fixed bug where users received an "Access Denied" error when they did not have access to the parent Web site.
  • Added support for Barcodes created by a MOSS 2007 policy. Moved documents keep their Barcode while copied documents receive a new Barcode.
  • Added product documentation as PDF and HTML Help file.
  • Fixed bug "Attempted to make calls on more than one thread in single threaded mode. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010102 RPC_E_ATTEMPTED_MULTITHREAD))"
  • Fixed bug "Error importing user to the site . The user does not exist or is not unique".
  • Fixed bug where move transactions freezed at 90% completion. This issue only occured when moving items having a pending workflow.
  • Fixed bug where a copy/move operation under certain conditions yielded the error: "User cannot be found".
  • Fixed bug where moving a folder in a picture library yielded the error: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".

CopyMove V1.2.5 Released

September 03, 2009

New maintenance release.

Download and evaluate CopyMove for SharePoint
 
Changes since V1.2.4:
  • Fixed bug where the left-hand item selection pane could only show the first 100 items in a list. Now, it aligns itself with the current view and page in the list. To show all items, create and select a new list view that shows all items in one page. Fixed bug where files in folders with unique permissions were sometimes not copied/moved - only the folder itself was copied/moved.
  • Fixed bug "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
  • Created OEM build for special customers. Contact sales@sharepointproducts.com for more information if you have a need to embed CopyMove in your own SharePoint product offering.
  • Fixed bug where the CopyMove Settings page in Central Administration sometimes failed to load.
  • Added hook to intercept Copy/Move event in SharePoint list event handlers. CopyMove now injects a hidden property on files that a custom event handler can use to detect a copy and move operations. The property is named SPPCopyMoveEvent and can assume the following values; 0 (Document was copied), 1 (Document was moved), 2 (Document move in progress - more versions coming), 3 (Document copy in progress - more versions coming). NOTE: Requires a trial or production license to work. Not available in the free version!

 

CopyMove V1.2.4 Released

June 21, 2009

New feature activation strategy, fixed Win Server 2008 install issue.

Download and evaluate CopyMove for SharePoint
 
Changes since V1.2.3:
  • Fixed issue where the Installer on Windows Server 2008 failed to validate that the SharePoint Timer Service is started. The problem turned out to be Windows User Account Control, which must be turned OFF. If it is not, the user now gets a better error message hinting to turn it off.
  • Changed feature activation concept. The CopyMove actions in document libraries and lists are no longer added by activating the CopyMove farm feature. They are now added by activating the CopyMove feature at the level of the Web application or at the level of the site collection. But it must be avoided to activate the features at both levels as the CopyMove actions with otherwise appear twice in all lists and libraries.
  • Fixed issue where list items with more than one version did not always preserve all metadata when moved or copied.
  • Added Copy & Move actions to Form libraries.

 

SimCorp customer testimonial

June 20, 2009

We are very happy to have received a very nice customer testimonial from SimCorp.

The testimonial has been added to the new customers section here on the Web site. SimCorp was our first customer and they have successfully been using CopyMove in production since December 2008. The first version of CopyMove was in fact developed in cooperation with this customer - something we at SharePoint Products enjoyed very much. They have high requirements for their SharePoint deployment and are very professional to work with, giving us a lot of valuable feedback.
 
We have since the first public release of CopyMove in March 2009, gained more customers world wide and are working to list some of their great feedback as well.

This issue has been resolved by trimming the target selection tree by read access rather than write access. List and folders that does not grant write access to the user are marked with a gray color.
