[AccessD] VSS - Build from source error question...

Hi Charlotte,

I am running Access XP.  I installed the XP Developer Tools also.  The I
installed the VSS 6.0c client.  Did I miss something?  I can see the VSS
toolbar in Access.

I had never seen the .ACS files either.

I am thinking that I have not installed something or that I did something
out of order.

Bobby

Normally, forms and subforms have the ACF file extension, reports and
subreports have ACR, queries have ACQ, modules have ACM and the ACB and
CAN files contain the miscellaneous data objects. I've never run into
ACS files so they must be for objects we don't use.

You have the current Access VSS add-in installed?  The 2003 add-in is
supposed to work for XP as well.

Hey,

I rebuilt my machine here at work and was trying to build from source in
VSS.  It gave me many "can not import file xxx' messages.  The ones
giving this error are some of the form and report files.

When I look at the .SCC directory under my project, I see 221 objects
(out of 1457 objects) that have as their type 'Microsoft Agent Character
File (HTTP format)' and 27 objects that have the type 'Microsoft Agent
Character File'.

It looks like only the .ACF files get the 'Microsoft Agent Character
File (HTTP format)' type and the .ACS files get the 'Microsoft Agent
Character File' type.

Has anyone run into this before?  Anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks,
Bobby
