    Disable "Create Project" option.

    It can't be done and I can't imagine why you would want to. If the object is to keep users from creating projects, don't give them ADD rights.

    File (pathname)\aaaaaaaa.b not found

    I'm at a loss for an answer. 60 developers and a 6gb database and we've never seen the problem. The only thing we don't do is use ssafe integration - have you tried running it that way?

    File (pathname)\aaaaaaaa.b not found

    How about more information: 1. What development tools are being used? Have they been used since before the problem started? 2. Is multiple checkout enabled? 3. Are you using sourcesafe integration with your development tool? 4. What action produces the messages? 5. Is it always the same file...

    VSS Maintenance Analyze

    Probably not but, since this is your code, caution is in order. In general, I'd suggest the following: 1. Make a full backup of the VSS db. 2. Restore this backup to another location. 3. Run Analyze against this duplicate. If your db is large, Analyze may take a long time when run with the -f...

    Edward, When you add a file using the 'Add File' command, you are given the option (click 'advanced>>') to 'store only latest version'. See 'Add Files' in Help. You can also add the Store_Deltas initialization variable to the srcsafe.ini or ss.ini file. Set the value to NO, as: Store_Deltas =...

    Get Latest Version Not Working

    If there is already a copy of the file in your working folder, SSAFE will not necessarily replace it. Using the Get Latest Version command has four possible outcomes: When the file you are retrieving is not already in your working folder, VSS simply gets the file. When the file in your...

    Any help writing VSS Policies...?

    Essential SourceSafe by Ted Roche is the only one I've seen. Available at www.hentzenwerke.com. It presents a good overview. But how you actually implement SSafe will depend on the needs of your own shop. We have about 50 developers and perhaps 200 QA, SA and others that access material from...

    Loss Admin password

    Microsoft tech support will step you through the procedure to create a new password - I don't know if they charge for the call. The following URL lists the procedure (same as what microsoft will tell you). http://www.amundsen.com/articles/article.asp?File=vsslostpw
