Visual SourceSafe Integration

Visual SourceSafe and Visual Basic

When a Visual Basic project is maintained by Visual SourceSafe, you can check forms in and out within the Visual Basic IDE.

Figure 13.9 Using Visual SourceSafe with Visual Basic

Without exiting Visual Basic, you can:

• Check files in
• Check files out
• View file history
• Share files
• Add files
• Create new projects
• Get latest versions
• Undo check out

In addition, if you check out a .frm file, the associated .frx file is automatically included. A .frm file stores textual information about a form and a .frx file stores binary form data.
