SYMPTOMS

An incorrect time and date stamp appear in the Visual SourceSafe Explorer for a .resx file that is added from Visual Studio .NET.

CAUSE

The .resx file is copied from a template, which may have an earlier date. The last modification date appears in Solution Explorer, instead of the current time stamp.

RESOLUTION

Visual SourceSafe updates the date during the next modification:
  1. Check out the file (the default name of the file is UserControl1.cs).
  2. Modify the file, and then check in the file.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce the Behavior

  1. Create a control library.
  2. Add the project to Visual SourceSafe.
  3. In Visual SourceSafe Explorer, note the date that is associated with the .resx file.
