Any basic backup program or simple 'copy' will work. Just make sure to grab
the entire folder structure and all files. VSS is file-based.

However, DO NOT use an incremental backup process. One that merely back-ups
changes. They will fail.

I'm using Office Developer 2000. I want to create Access database as
part of VS project, which is under Visual Source Safe control. I have
the problem if I create the database in Access 2000, and I select
Tools/SourceSafe/Add database to ..., it creates the project branch in
VSS, but does not add anything in source safe, but it creates .scc
folder in the folder where the .mdb file is stored. This .scc folder
is also empty.
I have re-installed Office200 developer to ensute VSS integration is
installed.  The PC is a Windows Terminal Server 2000 running Citrix
Server and has Visual Studio .Net 2003 installed.  Office is service
packed to SP3 and Windows 2000 Server has been service packed to SP4. 
All current Windows update patches have been installed up to date. 
VSS is installed with VS.NET and is V6.0d.
This was not a problem on the previous system up to a few weeks ago
which was running the previous version of .Net, did not have up to the
very latest Windows Update patches and was Win2K sp3.

6. vss, asp.net, and vbproj file 

Hi,
I'm wanting to edit an aspx page for the first time in my VS solution project that is connected to vss on our server.   When I double click on the aspx page to edit, the check-out dialog box appears for the .vbproj file (as well as the check-out for the aspx page itself).  All the files are in my working dir and I believe they have already been added to the project.  Why would I be getting this dialog box?

Thanks!!!!

8. Help - .NET IDE Using VSS 6.0, not 2005 

Hi, i just recently installed VB 6.0 and Sourcesafe 6.0 onto Windows XP.  
Unfortunately, now my .NET project are using VSS 6.0 for source control 
instead of VSS 2005 which it was which it was previously using.  Is there a 
way to tell the .NET IDE to use Sourcesafe 2005 only?

Thanks!
John
