Files and Settings Transfer Wizard

I have 20 machines to convert information from. GAK. Anyway, when I use the
Wizard, it changes the date for the document or what have you to the date the
Wizard is run; AND it makes the files Read Only.

With so much to transfer, I cannot have the Read Only part -- it slows down
my productivity significantly.

Also, I MUST HAVE the original dates . . . how do I stop this activity?

TIA,

Tere
