How to get the information of any file checked out by a user longer than a certain date

Hi there,

Again its me. I wondering, can we get the information of:

"Any file checked out by a user longer than a certain date"

What i mean regarding the statement is, i would like to know what file has been checked out more than a certain date. Example, any file that check out more than 3 days,

Thanks.

Hi,

You can use VSS automation and write your own program to retrieve this kind of information. See IVSS documentation at:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnvss/html/msdn_vssole.asp
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnvss/html/vssauto.asp
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/kdxsa91h(en-US,VS.80).aspx

VSS command line only allows displaying all checked out files by a user, with no possibility of filtering out the results by date. ("ss status $/ -N -R -U")

Basically, do we need to install Visual Basic in order to run the OLE Automation? ( Previously i used the Visual Basic 6.0)

To run the program you don't need VisualBasic, but to write your program using VSS OLE Automation you'll need a language installed (VisualBasic, C#, C++ etc)
