Moving or Closing/Opening Discussion Threads
Hopefully I am missing something painfully obvious, but how do I as a site administrator move, open or close a discussion thread in WSS 3.0? I have Full Control permission for the site, but see no options for moving, opening or closing. I see an option for deleting the entire board, but nothing for managing the invidual threads.Hopefully someone can show me what I am missing...Tom DowdColumbia College Chicago

Hi Tom, there's no built-in way of doing this (that i know of) either in WSS or MOSS. You could try the task mover feature:Download from CodeplexTask Mover Feature (separate download):http://www.codeplex.com/features/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=2502Also take a look at this link:http://stevesps.blogspot.com/2008/01/to-copy-file-from-one-lib-to-another.html You could also do it programmatically (ask in dev forum) :)Daniel Bugday Web: SharePoint Forum Blog: Daniel Bugday's Blog

Hi, Even I tried a lot but was not able to find any straight built in way. There are 2 ways it can be done: 1. Either change the permissions of the discussion board and make it read only for others. 2. Else follow this thread to get to know the other difficult way http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointgeneral/thread/466ad432-162e-435c-ab6f-e7cd7577540c Thanks, Rahul Rashu
