A great community tool. It lets the permissions get set down to the type of form being opened. This specific requirement has come up many times, so this feature is a great enhancement to SharePoint. It can be found at: http://www.codeplex.com/SPListDisplaySetting

Copy SPD workflow Between Site Collection

Posted by ken zheng on October 15, 2008

Today, I tried to create a simple workflow in SharePoint Designer. I thought how about copying the workflow to another list in different site collection.

Surprised! It is very easy in SharePoint Desginer. Just open your two sites and drag and drop the workflow. Open the copied workflow from Destination site, and you may need to reset the value/field.

It works.
