You can convert Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files manually, or you can use the OMPM Office File Converter to convert files in bulk. For information about installing OMPM, see Introduction to Office Migration Planning Manager (OMPM).

Convert files in bulk with OMPM

The Office File Converter (OFC) requires that the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack be installed on the computers that contain the files you want to convert. For more information, see Deploying the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack.

Before running the Office File Converter, first edit the ofc.ini file to set the appropriate parameters.

To convert files

At a command prompt, navigate to the folder where OFC is installed.
Type:
```
ofc <ofc.ini>
```

The parameter for this command is as follows.

Parameter	Description
ofc.ini	The location of the ofc.ini file. If no path is specified, OFC looks in the same directory as the executable. Optional.

Note

If you set FileListFolder and FoldersToConvert to the same set of files, the set of files will be converted twice.

Ofc.ini Settings

The following table shows the settings and values in ofc.ini.

Setting	Description	Possible Values	If value is missing	If value is not valid
[Run]	Section lists unique ID and description of this conversion. Required.		Conversion stops with error message.	Error: [Run] section heading invalid or missing in OFC.INI.
RunID	Tracking number for the current Conversion. Use this to group Conversions from different computers in the Reporting Tool. Required.	Must be numeric	Conversion stops with error message.	Error: Invalid or missing RunID value in OFC.INI.
Description	Text used to describe the current conversion run. Optional.	Free-form text, truncated to 255 characters	Ignore.	Not applicable.
LogDestinationPath	Location for the log file. Required.	Physical or mapped drive or UNC. For example: c:\Conversion\logs \\server\vba\logs Environment variables are also supported.	Conversion stops with error message.	Error: Invalid or missing ‘LogDestinationPath’ value in OFC.INI.
[ConversionOptions]	Section heading for portion of INI file dealing with conversion options. Required, unless there are no conversion options specified in the .ini file.		Conversion stops with error message.	Error: [ConversionOptions] section heading invalid or missing in OFC.INI.
FullUpgradeOnOpen	Enables user to specify that applicable files should be ‘fully upgraded’ on open in respective O12 apps. Optional.	Valid values are 1 –full upgrade 0 –no full upgrade	Default to full upgrade.	Error: ‘FullUpgradeOnOpen’ value in OFC.INI.
DoNotCab	Enables users to disable creating CAB files of log files. Optional.	Valid values are 1 – disables creating CAB files of log files 0 – enables CAB’ing of log files	Conversion stops with error message.	Error: Invalid or missing DoNotCab value in OFC.INI.
MacroControl	Determines if the converter includes any macro projects during conversion. A setting of 1 will cause the OFC to produce macro-free Office 2007 document formats (such as .docx, xlsx, pptx). Macro/VBA code in the original documents will not be migrated. Optional.	Valid values are 1 – disregard VBA on conversion 0 – match macro state of source document.	Defaults to 0.	Error: Invalid ‘MacroControl’ value in OFC.INI.
[FoldersToConvert]	Section lists directories to convert for standalone operation. FileList will be ignored. Optional.	List of folders.	Ignored if input file passed.	Error: [FoldersToConvert] section invalid in OFC.INI.
ConvertSubfolders	If folders are specified, a setting of 1 causes the OFC to traverse subfolders, converting all Word, XL, & PPT documents. Optional.	0 or 1	Defaults to 0.	Error: Invalid ‘ConvertSubfolders’ value in OFC.INI.
[ConversionInfo]	Section lists input file and destination information. Required.	[ConvertedFolders]	Conversion stops with error message.	Error: [ConversionInfo] section heading invalid or missing in OFC.INI.
FileList	Path to FileList. Optional.			Error if not present and [FoldersToConvert] empty.
SourcePathTemplate	Used to determine location of converted file. You can use wildcards, so that an asterisk (*) represents a single segment of the path. Optional.	Any physical or mapped drive or UNC. * or ‘.’		Error: Invalid ‘SourcePathRoot’ value in OFC.INI.
DestinationPathTemplate	Used to determine location of converted file. You can use wildcards, so that an asterisk (*) plus a number represents a single segment of the path. See below for examples. Optional.	Any physical or mapped drive or UNC. * or ‘.’		Error: Invalid ‘DestinationPathRoot’ value in OFC.INI.

The following examples show how you can use the SourcePathTemplate and DestinationPathTemplate settings.

Example 1

In this example, the source files are located in \\userfiles\<user name>\docs\ and the desired output is to \\newserver\docs\<user name>\.

To achieve this result, the SourcePathTemplate and DestinationPathTemplate settings should appear as follows:

SourcePathTemplate = *\*\*\
DestinationPathTemplate = \\newserver\*3\*2

In this case, DestinationPathTemplate assigns a number for each directory segment represented by an asterisk in SourcePathTemplate, so that:

*1 = userfiles

*2 = <user name>

*3 = docs

The following table shows sample source file locations and the resulting locations for converted files with the above settings.

Source Destination

Source	Destination
`\\userfiles\Cliff\docs\notes.doc`	`\\newserver\docs\Cliff\notes.docx`
`\\userfiles\Bob\docs\Personal\Rept1.doc`	`\\newserver\docs\Bob\Personal\Rept1.docx`
`\\userfiles\James\docs\New Folder\Schedule.doc`	`\\newserver\docs\James\New Folder\Schedule.docx`

\\userfiles\Cliff\docs\notes.doc

\\newserver\docs\Cliff\notes.docx

\\userfiles\Bob\docs\Personal\Rept1.doc

\\newserver\docs\Bob\Personal\Rept1.docx

\\userfiles\James\docs\New Folder\Schedule.doc

\\newserver\docs\James\New Folder\Schedule.docx

Example 2

In this example, the source files are located in the My Documents folders on users' local computers. The UNC path is \\<computer name>\<drive letter>$\Documents and Settings\<user name>\My Documents\. The desired output is to \\DocServer\docs\<user name>\.

To achieve this result, the SourcePathTemplate and DestinationPathTemplate settings should appear as follows:

SourcePathTemplate = *\*\*\*\*\
DestinationPathTemplate = \\DocServer\*4\

In this case, DestinationPathTemplate assigns a number for each directory segment represented by an asterisk in SourcePathTemplate, so that:

*1 = <computer name> (for example, DESKTOP3)

*2 = <drive letter>$ (for example, c$)

*3 = Documents and Settings

*4 = <user name> (for example, bobsmith)

*5 = My Documents

The following table shows sample source file locations and the resulting locations for converted files with the above settings.

Source Destination

Source	Destination
`\\DESKTOP3\c$\Documents and Settings\bobsmith\My Documents\Plans.doc`	`\\DocServer\bobsmith\Plans.docx`
`LPTP4\d$\Documents and Settings\James\My Documents\Reports\q1.xls`	`\\DocServer\James\Reports\q1.xlsx`

\\DESKTOP3\c$\Documents and Settings\bobsmith\My Documents\Plans.doc

\\DocServer\bobsmith\Plans.docx

LPTP4\d$\Documents and Settings\James\My Documents\Reports\q1.xls

\\DocServer\James\Reports\q1.xlsx

Use VET for extracting versions of Word files

You can use the Version Extraction Tool (VET) included in OMPM to extract versions of files from Word files created in Office 2000, Office XP, and Office 2003 that contain versioning. With this tool, you can use the list of files generated by the OMPM reporting utility.

Note

VET requires Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package (x86) (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=81886) and Microsoft Word 2003.

To extract versions from Word files

At a command prompt, navigate to the folder where VET is installed.

Type:

vet <OMPM file list directory> <output directory>

The parameters for this command are as follows:

Parameter	Description
OMPM file list directory	Location of the file list generated by OMPM. Required.
output directory	The directory to which you want to copy all of the versions of the Word files. Required.

For example, to use file lists contained in the c:\ompm\filelists directory and extract versions to the c:\ompm\output directory, you would type:

vet c:\ompm\filelists c:\ompm\output

VET error messages

The following table show the error messages that VET writes both to the log and to the action file.
