[AccessD] Visual Source Safe with Access Add-in

It isn't much harder than that once you have SourceSafe installed on
your PC.  I think there's a readme file with the download, but you just
run the installer and it adds the SourceSafe item to your Access Tools
menu (VSS needs to be installed first, though).  To add all the objects
in a database to SourceSafe, just open the database, select SourceSafe
from the tools menu, and click on Add Objects to SourceSafe.  Create
Database from SourceSafe Project is the option you use when you want to
pull a database out of SS so you can modify objects in it.   

To get a non-SS version of the database for testing or whatever, just
close the database file and then compact it to a new name.  When VSS
asks if you want to remove it from source control, say yes, and the
compacted copy is not bound to sourcesafe.

this = Visual Source Safe with Access add-in. 

I'm just going on past experience that this won't be as easy as 1-2-3,
boom, I'm done and now up and running VSS with Access.

Which "this"?  The Access add-in can be downloaded from the MS site.
The XP version works for 2003.
