Hi Richard: I've used VSS integration with VFP from late 90's, so I really understand the difficulty of leaving it go :-) But guess what? You can live without it. I've tried, and it was a costly change, specially the change of mind because you develop in the IDE and checkin/checkout on another tool feels "strange" :) With some practice and open mind I've realized that was not so difficult at the end, and that the project (pjx) opens really fast without the SCM integration. The really hard part, is changing your mind about the file "blocking". You first think you "need it", you can't live without seen "who have this file checked out?" Didn't you? :-) At a short time without VSS, I've appreciated the value of "not blocking" files, so developers can work at the same time in any component. It's really a challenge. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/cagq_jum1yt0waz6krcvbghcrqosv81sfto5bncu9cq1rzch...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
