I am converting a small office from a workgroup environment to a domain
environment (Server is Win 2003 SBS). I want to move all user settings
(wallpaper, installed software, ...) for each user so that when he/she logs
onto the domain (on the same computer as before), everything will look the
same. Can I use the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard to do this? Any
special considerations that I need to look out for? Also, in general, is
there anything in doing this conversion that I need to be aware of or look
out for?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Check out the User State Migration Tool:
