Export Document Library with Metadata to Excel
Sometimes it is required to export the whole list of files within a Document Libary along with Metadata to an Excel file. DMS-Shuttle provides a built-in report that does this job. The tool allows to run this report for the entire Document Library or for some selected Subfolders.
