[AccessD] Access & VSS & Vs.Net

If only life were so simple. I haven't worked on a single-developer project
for a few years now. And even on single-dev projects I'm actually two
developers, one at home and the other at the office.
IMO assuming single-developer gains nothing and costs much.

KISS version control:  WinZip.  Works great for single developer projects.
