INFO: Create a File List of a Project at a Particular Time or Label (250834)

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 Q250834

SUMMARY

Obtaining a list of files that were in a project at a specific time is not directly supported by the Visual SourceSafe Explorer. The best way to get this information is to use the Visual SourceSafe command line; you can also use OLE Automation.

MORE INFORMATION

For example, if you have a project named "$/Project1", and you want to list the files that are in the project on 5/17/1999, run the following command at a DOS command prompt:

ss dir $/Project1 -vd5-17-99

To get the same project at a label named "TestLabel", run the following command at a DOS command prompt:

ss dir $/Project1 -vlTestLabel
