VSS6.0d to VSS 2005 migration

Thanks Richard!

I integrated the VB 6 with VSS 2005, everything looks good except one minor issue. I don't see the red checkmark against the checked-out file. I am not sure whether it’s something specific to my installation or it’s a known problem. To reproduce the behavior Pease follow these steps,

1. Open a VSS project in VB 6 and check out any file, it displays the red checkmark against the file
2. Now, close the VB
3. Re-open the project, and this time it doesn't display the red checkmark against the file even though file status still says checked out.

Hi,

I am part of a developers group and we have been using VSS6.0d for more than a year now. I am evaluating changing to VSS2005. I understand we will have to uninstall VSS6.0d and install VSS2005 on the server and workstations. Before I go ahead with this, I will like to know how other users are doing with VSS2005. I am very satisfied with VSS6.0d, with its integration wih VB6.0 and VS2003, and will like to know if the experience with VSS2005 will be similar or better.

Thanks,

Angel

Mike, thanks for the Input. I am interested in the VSS2005 mainly because of the option for Internet Access, which VSS6.0d does not have. I have some developers that work on a remote office, and I want them to use VSS. What I will possibly do is set up a VPN in order for them to access VSS6.0d. In another forum Alin Constantin (www.alinconstantin.net) told me of some third party options for VSS6.0d Internet Access. Do you use Internet Access with VSS6.0d, and if so, how did you set it up ?

Thanks again,

Angel
