    Hello! I have a team site, and all of the content needs to be moved to a subsite as a sort of yearly archive. I only have Sharepoint Designer and a web browser with which to do this and I want to make sure all of the versioning remains intact.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks!

    Not possible if you want to keep all the versioning.  If the site isn't too big you could save it as a template with content and then build a new site off the template.  But that won't retain the versioning history.  The only way to do that AND retain the versioning would be to write some custom code.
