Tool Update for Reverse Engineering SharePoint 2007 and 2010 into HTML, Text, and DGML Sitemaps

There is now an update for this tool here.

I have upgrade this tool and posted the new version. You now have to copy the appropriate folder instead of just the file because the tool is dependent on the WPF Toolkit.

You can now have the option to list the users on the sites, and flag sites that have not been updated for a while to show in RED. The user's emails are listed as well as their administration status.

The DGML tool that creates diagrams for Visual Studio 2010 now ties all the site collects to the web application at the top level. Sites older than the day selected will be shown in RED. All the site nodes in the DGML are clickable.

ORIGINAL POST (with new screenshots):
I recently needed to reverse engineer a SharePoint 2007 Farm to prepare for an upgrade to 2010.

I initially used the stsadm tool and PowerShell commands, but they were arduous to use. I looked around for an open source options but could not find one. So I built this one. The SharePoint Diagram Tool which reverse engineers SharePoint 2007 and 2010 SharePoint sites into HTML, text, and DGML for displaying in a diagram.

Just copy the appropriate file to the server and run it.

You need admin rights on the box and to the content databases. If you generate files, they will be in the same folder as the exe. You also have the option of just copying the results out of the results textbox.

Note- These are not ASP.NET Site Maps. These are for analysis not navigation.

Below are some screen shots:
