Does anyone know of a script, or a method in which you can automatically transfer folders and files from a server to a Visual SourceSafe 6.0 database? The only way I know of is is to recreate the source file structure on the destination database which normally is not so bad. However, I need to transfer 3 GBs worth of ColdFusion files, needless to say, I would like to find a much faster way to perform this migration. Thanks.
 
In visual Source safe
add a project to contain the files
click Add Files toolbar button (2nd on left)
click the directory containing the actual files
click ADD button
On the confirm screen, tick the 'Recursive' option. This will add all sub-folders automatically.

It will take ages, and the source safe server must have enough spare disk space!
