I could able to get the list items along with the preserved created and modified values. Thanks a ton!

For those who are all facing the issues with the type casting a small suggestion from my side. Hope it may help u

Before performing this operation. Just save the list or document library as a template with out content and create the same list in destination site. And then if you perform the move operation, it may solve the issues. I tried in the same way and with out errors i could move the items.

Kindly correct me if there is any better option!! Thanks

Useful if you have comments, etc., captured as part of versioning in the original list.

I have logged this to our Microsoft support site they could not resolve it.

Henry you have just saved an enterprise of over 10000 staff.

I appreciate

Let me just say that before I attempted the move to an existing list, I made sure all the same columns were in both lists. After checking the SharePoint logs I encountered this detail: “09/15/2011 11:13:58.02 w3wp.exe (0x107C)
0x066C CMS
Site Management
7fnq
Unexpected
SMListItemData.LoadChildItems: Failed to cast column ‘RelatedIssues’ from ‘Lookup’ to ‘DateTime’ ”

Both list were created from Issue tracking template and both have a column (built-in) called “Related Issues”. Both columns are lookup columns. So. Why is the move trying to cast this column as a datatime data type?
