Hi Ryan

I gave up on that. No matter what, it would anyway be partial as system tables and database properties could/will change.
After any major or important change, I simply create a zip of the database and rename it to include the date and time. This way it is simple and non-destructive to pull a previous version and copy or study what you may need.
The zips are stored on our replicated file server having 2 x 2 backups. Nice and safe.

Emne: [AccessD] Source Control

Have any of you used Ivercy (https://www.ivercy.com/Download) Or Oasis-SVN ( https://dev2dev.de/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=44&Itemid=260&lang=en
)

For source control? These look like they'll do form code, tables, etc.  I know MS used to have some source control available.  All I've been doing is making sure I have stable accdb files, and if I do any large code overhaul I have a function that runs DoCmd.TransferText on all the forms to get the code so I can run it through my GIT repo.

But it would be nice to version control the tables too... I guess.
