I'm new to sharepoint. Can anyone tell how to migrate the sharepoint 2003 project into sharepoint 2007?
Posted

Hello. Could you be a little more specific regarding your issue? When you say "SharePoint 2003" and "SharePoint 2007", are you refering to WSS 3.0 and MOSS 2007? Furthermore, when you say a "Project", do you mean a Visual Studio project, or do your WSS 3.0 / MOSS 2007 site?

If by chance with SharePoint 2003 you mean WSS 3.0, then you are actually migrating from the free version of SharePoint to the enterprise edition, so to speak. In which case you should be able to back-up the WSS 3.0 site and restore it in the MOSS 2007 one, provided both have the same patch level (i.e. Service Pack 1 on WSS 3.0 implies SP1 on MOSS 2007).

And if you mean Visual Studio Project, then you need to perform no upgrade, since both use the same libraries. If only, with MOSS 2007 you'll have access to further libraries and Web Services to use.

Hope this helps.

Not quite. The libraries are quite different between WSS 2.0 and WSS 3.0
Your question isn't very clear. Do you mean you have a Visual Studio project that was used to create artifacts for SharePoint 2003 and you want to use that project to create artifacts for SharePoint 2007? If so then you should be able to open the project file in VS 2007 and have it converted. The files (elements.xml, feature.xml, etc.) are XML, though there have been some schema changes you'll need to deal with, which you would built into a wsp.
