Please can someone confirm that SourceSafe Version 5 (note FIVE not SIX) operates cleanly under XP before we migrate operating systems! Gratefully yours. Steve.

In trying to move or share an item from one SourceSafe sub directory to another I get the error message 'An item with the name xxxxx already exists'. It does not! I cannot see it. Nor is there a deleted copy in there. Has anybody encountered the same issue and has anybody got a solution? I...

Yep, works perfectly with one get. I think you are right, if I really want an automated overnight run of this I'll have to build up a list of all the files and append a get in front of them. Thanks for the suggestion. Steve

Hi, Thanks for replying. It is exactly the same problem with or without the status in there and either running by script or doing each line manually in a command line window. I've since been told by our techie that this is very very old version of Unix I am trying to talk to so the problem...

Hi, THanks for responding so quickly. However, I should have checked my example better as dumping the outut into a file seems to have rearranged the lines. This is the script I am running. open las sn **password** cd /user2/db status mget *.p close bye There is a carraige return between...

Hi, I'm trying to use FTP on NT4 to pull down around 300 items from one of our unix boxes. However, when I try it I keep getting and 'arguments too long' error. e.g. ftp> Connected to xxxxx open las 220 uk3 FTP server (UNIX(r) System V Release 4.0) ready. User (xxxxxx:(none)): 331 Password...

Is there a way of getting the highest current version number into an 'ss dir' command line output when the items it is searching on are not pinned? Pinned ones correctly give the pin level, ie. 'module_name.pkh,6'. Whereas if it is unpinned, all I get back is 'module_name.pkh'. I'm after all...

Is there any way I can get the full sourcesafe path included in the filename when using the 'ss dir -r' command line? The filepath is currently appearing at the top of a block of files. I need it against each file name. I was hoping the -N option might do this but I can't see any difference...

Does anybody know of a way within SourceSafe, or through an add-on, whereby I can see at a glance which version a file is pinned at? We keep a main directory of all the modules in live, with a pin at the current version. However, to see where the pin is I have to go into 'history' for each...

At a recent British Computer Society's Config Management day it was indicated that a lot of organsiations are migrating off SourceSafe when the database grew to more than 1.5 gig. Some seem to be finding it unwieldy. We're at 1.7 gig and not suffering any problems so far (beyond the normal...

I am looking for a way or comparing actual compiled code on the server with the content of sourceSafe to ensure that they are both in sync. I can download the packages from the server and do a file by file comparison, and by setting 'ignore whitespace' the files do correctly match. Howevr, if...
