The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visual SourceSafe for Windows 5.0
  • Microsoft Visual SourceSafe for Windows 6.0
This article was previously published under Q176353

SYMPTOMS

The Visual SourceSafe OLE Automation interface does not support label comments. The Visual SourceSafe OLE Automation model exposes the ability to set, retrieve or modify the standard comment information, but it does not expose the ability to retrieve label comment information. A label comment is a special comment that is only available from within the label details dialog box. It is not possible to set or retrieve these labels from within the OLE Automation interface.

CAUSE

This functionality was not exposed in this version of the OLE Automation interface.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected Visual SourceSafe version 6.0 for Windows.

MORE INFORMATION

At this time the only possible way to work around this behavior is to use the command line interface.
