Visual Source Safe 8.0 advice please



Is there a convenient way to find differences between source files in the
database and a project, *and then* merge the differences into the database. I
can easily find differences, but SS doesn't seem to have any easy way to
easily put in the found changes without first making a copy of the changed
file, checking out the file (which then overwrites the changes) putting the
changes back into the file, then checking the file back in. What VSS really
needs is a tool to simply and manually merge changes into the database.
Hopefully I am missing some fundamental technique that some experienced VSS
users can tell me about.

Thanks,
Gerry
