Making Exchange 2003 Move Mailbox reports readable

Move mailbox reports in Exchange 2003 are stored in XML format in the \My Documents\Exchange Task Wizard Logs folder of the user that moved the files. However, they are not very readable without a style sheet being applied to the XML file.

However, Exchange 2003 does not include a style sheet that will make this puppy any prettier. However, I have found a style sheet that some clever person (I don't know who; I'm not that clever) wrote for the Exchange Task Wizard.

You first need to download the MoveMailboxReport.xslt (this is a ZIP file) style sheet and put it in a folder such as your local Windows folder (since that is what my example shows.)

After moving the mailboxes, open the XML file that is created and insert a new line between the first and second line that includes the location of the XSLT file (add leading "<" and trailing ">" tags):

?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="c://windows/MoveMailboxReport.xslt"?

Complete instructions and an example are in the movemailboxreport.zip file. The blog editor converts any HTML codes in the text, so it is not easy to see in the blog.
