Re: Access 97 and Visual Source Safe ( VSS )

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

There is a small problem with form properties for bound fields:
they are not created when you get a copy of a form from source
control.

That is, if you have a bound field "idx", and no control called
"idx" and you are using "me.idx" to refer to the field, your
code will fail.

Loading a large database is very slow while it is connected
to source control. Access checks the status of every object
when you open the database. (It sometimes fails during this
step).

Source control is sometimes unstable when used with large
databases: you may not be able to create the database from
source control, or update some objects.

VSS is irritating: it labels all of the objects as com binary
objects, so you can't use the very good text comparison
tool! You can switch the project interface over to text,
but as soon as some one connects Access, VSS switches
the project interface back again.

You need to remove workgroup security to use source
control.

Access doesn't support source control of the tables, relationships,
or data. After the queries, modules, forms and reports are
stripped out, everything else goes in as a single binary object.
