    Let me set the stage first. The documents needs to move across sites, the source and destination sites are in the same site collection

    Parent
    -Subsite 1
    -- Child A
    ---Source
    -Subsite 2
    -- Child B
    ---Destination

    * Templates/other documents are stored in a document library in our source site
    * Task will be assigned to the user in the destination site to work on a document (which will have link to the template/document in the source library).
    * I want the workflow to copy the document from source site and copy it to a set folder in document library in the destination site
    * source file location, source file destination folder all will be metadata for the task

    I came across this link http://geekswithblogs.net/stephaniegrima/archive/2008/10/18/copyingmoving-a-document-to-another-library-anywhere-in-the-site.asp, but will this work for my site structure?

    I am going to attempt doing this in the weekend, any pointers and help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Aaron

    Hi amitoni,

    For more complex WorkFlow you will need Visual Studio 2008. Here is a great overview of what your asking for : http://www.sharepointblogs.com/andynoon/archive/2008/02/06/sharepoint-2007-workflow-with-visual-studio-2008.aspx
