Office Migration Planning Manager: Released
We’ve been waiting for this one. The OMPM is finally and officialy realeased. For those who are not familiar with OMPM; it is short for Office Migration Planning Manager and is similar to what ACT (Application Compatibility Toolkit) does for Vista, only OMPM ‘does it’ for Office. It provides you with a set of tools that enables you to to scan the pc’s and file shares for document conversion issues. The purpose of this free tool is to simplify the migration to Office 2007. Information that you can retrieve from this tool is which documents have which type of conversion issues. After examing this data, you can decide which documents you want to convert automatically (a conversion tool is provided with the OMPM) and which files you do not want to touch. In addition, it tells when documents have last been modified and that information can be used to archive those ‘ever lasting’ documents. (more)
