Hi,

I'm currently using VSS 6.0D, but there are a few bugs with it which is causing me problems.

MS would like me to use version 6.0C for my build commands, as the bug was not present in that version.

How do I tell VisBuildPro to use version 6.0c instead of D in either a command line or api (ssapi.dll) fashion?

Does Vis Build use the command line or API for its builtin SS functions?


Thx

From http://visualbuild.com/Manual/?vssoptionstab.htm (SourceSafe action Options Tab help topic):

Specify the ss.exe executable filename: ...If the action is unable to locate the ss.exe command-line tool or multiple versions are installed, check the checkbox above this field and enter the full drive+path+filename to ss.exe here.
