I am using Sharepoint 2010 and we are moving to Sharepoint 2013. One of our issues is how to bring over some list data (ie. copy list items from ListA in 2010 to ListB in 2013). I initially tried several strategies of moving list items from
one list to another list that was in the same site to see what would work. In most cases, I could copy the items to the other list but had problems dealing with the versioning. Exporting list content via saving a list template did not handle the
versioning. I was finlly able to write a one-time timer job that copied every item over to the other list to include the proper versions (and each version's proper creator and created date). Now I want to be able to connect to a remote site, get a handle
to a list on the remote site, and copy my items to the other list. I can't find any resources that talk about how to do this, which makes me think that maybe we can't do it. Is it possible to connect to a remote site? If not, are there any
ways to export list content, to include its versioning, to another site. I may have missed some other ways. Thanks - Peter
