Cupless Joe how to export visual force and customized platform information
Hi all,
I'm wondering if there is a way to export visualforce customizations from Salesforce? I.e. if you were transitioning a company to a larger organization or if you wanted to archive your current salesforce developments, is that possible? Is there a way to export all custom object information as well? If so, how? If not, are there any workarounds, besides manually saving the code for each customization?
Thanks very much!

All configurations exist in salesforce as Metadata(http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/An_Introduction_to_Force.com_Metadata)
There's a few options for migrating metadata between disconnected Orgs. These links should get you started:
