Hi Harry,   Version control is not necessary if you are the only developer working on a project. In this case, you are right you might as well backup the previous file. But if you work on large projects with multiple developers working on the same project affecting the same areas or not then version control becomes essential. With the version control we use we can keep track and compare changes made by different developers at the same layer. We can go back to any previous version. Versions can be saved for any project, group of projects or for all (build).     Maurice   Advanced Systems Integration, Inc. 26449 Rancho Parkway South Lake Forest, CA 92630 ph:    949-597-2170 fax:   949-597-0720 cell:  949-533-5966 From: Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Harry (Harshawardhan Deshpande Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2005 3:20 PM To: Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Introduction...   hi Maurice   I always wonder how any version control will work in Axapta.   Version control with a specific project is not practical since If I want to go back to the previous version then there is a very good chance that I will reset the code written for some other project and this thing will not be discovered till its too late.   Version control will certainly work when the Axapta implementation is divided into various stages. However, in this case its easier just to keep a back up of axvar.aod   I have not used any kind of a version control for the last three years and never had any problems. (Except @one site where I did keep a back up of axvar.aod @various points of time , it was a big and clearly defined project)   Looking forward to your comments.   regards   harry Maurice Cohen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi Brandon,   We experienced with visual source safe and Axapta but we determined that it was not practical. Instead we are using the Axapta version control (not a standard module) which works very well.   Maurice Cohen   Advanced Systems Integration, Inc. 26449 Rancho Parkway South Lake Forest, CA 92630 ph:    949-597-2170 fax:   949-597-0720 cell:  949-533-5966 From: Brandon George [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2005 8:38 AM To: Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Introduction...   Hello All!    My Name is Brandon - I am a Software Engineer from Georgia, U.S. I was invited by someone to join this group. Our company is implementing Axapta right now, and I am part of the Development / Support / Admin team for it. This is my first exposure to axapta, but I have been developing software for years - I am a C# for Windows / Web / Mobile Developer, and I can't wait to start diving into X++ and Axapta.   Anyway I do have a few questions:   (1) Has anyone ever tried to store projects / objects etc. into VSS (Visual Source Safe)? We are wanting to continue to use VSS for our version control just like we use it for the rest of our projects.   (2) Does anyone know of a User Import Util that will import users from The active directory and create users in axapta for them?   (3) I am wanting to create a Collection of Table or a Table Collection. Is there a such thing in Axapta? If so how does one go about doing that?   thanks, -Brandon www.axaptajobs.com   P.S. I will be launching a new website called www.axaptajobs.com which will focus on connection companies with axapta pros! It's under construction but look for it soon!   Sharing the knowledge on Axapta.
