SPExplorer Description

SPExplorer was developed to be a SharePoint farm analysis and XML capture tool. You can navigate around the structure of your farm and site collections and examine and extract individual sites, lists or more fine-grained elements as XML (CAML) ready for re-use or deployment. Simply run the SPExplorer application on any SharePoint web front-end server in your farm (in smaller installations this will just mean the SharePoint server). Then from the File menu choose "Read Local Farm" - you will need to be logged in with an administrator account. On large farms it may take some time to load the farm data, particularly if you have checked the "Content" option in the View menu. The Windows user interface consists of a left-hand pane containing a tree view of your farm. You can expand and contract nodes using the tree-view or expand all the nodes using the View->Expand All menu. As you select each node, the right-hand pane shows the CAML and, at the site collection level and above, the XML corresponding to the selected node. Use the File->Save XML... menu to save this CAML to a file. The CAML can also be captured by selecting and copying fragments of XML from the right-hand pane.
