Many thanks for that. It is helpful to update items from listA from SiteA to listA of SiteB. Can i request a small help in changing the script to update selected columns from listA(SiteA) to listA(SiteB). here UniqueID helps to update only one column and second column gets updated wrongly...

Without developing a custom timerjob it's not possible to execute a PS script with built in SP timer jobs /Mattias Hi,

I need help in knowing how to make your ps script to run in timer jobs so that it checks once a day to update the items in my list ListA based in another site's list ListB? Thanks in Advance Hi,

This script just saved me a day of mind numbing tedium! Cheers! I wonder if there's a way to specify criteria for what gets copied. I could think of a lot of uses for a copy based on conditions.

I do have thoughts on updating this one to 2010 and to be able to copy between farms but have just not had the time yet. But When I do I will definately post it here or I might even create a CodePlex project of it. /Mattias Hi Patrick,

But if understand the script can only be used locally and not remotely to another farm isn't it. Just confirming Thanks Patrick Mattias good stuff really.

Good Job and Thank you. I tested several scenerios and I have a question for one of them. I have 2 lists (ListA and ListB). ListA is my Source list and ListB is my destination list. I am copying from source to the destination. My ListA has 2 rows. I execute the script and my 2 rows are copied over to ListB, that is great. If I change an item in ListA(except the UniqueID) and exeucte the script, the changes are being copied as well to the ListB with the "OverWrite" parameter, that is great. However, when I delete a row in ListA which makes the total amount of rows 1 in ListA and execute the script, it does not delete it from ListB where I still have 2 rows in ListB. Is this behaviour expected? My other question is, this would be wonderful if we may run this script remotely. My Destination List is on SharePoint 2010. Is there any plan on this? I am also interested in other solutions you may propose even it is not Powershell. Again thank you for your work and making this available for us. Trappist Hi Mattias,

You whould have to run the script on the Source Server though since it's from another server you can do the remote scripting to SharePoint 2010. We will also make sure we have the same credentials on both environments or maybe it might be possible to built that in to the script. Thanks for the idea, I will look into it as the script. I manaaged to reproduce the problem but have not been able to test so much so give me some more time and I get back to you. Thanks Mattias That’s an interesting idea and worth looking into.
