How to add New Files to VSS

[rob_manger]

Hi Guys,

I have yet another VSS action problem which is probably a limitation of the ss.exe. My VBP script checks files out, copies new files over the top of the checked out files, then checks in the changes. The problem lies in what to do with New Files.

The problems are:
- "Check In" can not, as far as I can see, remove local copies, ie: leaving only new files that can be added in the next step.
- Adding files that already exist in VSS generates an error. I do not wish to "Ignore Errors" if possible.

Can anyone tell me how to isolate the new files for addition into the VSS project?

Regards
