SYMPTOMS

The source control integration menus are not available in the stand-alone editions of Visual C# .NET, Visual Basic .NET, or Visual C++ .NET.

CAUSE

To use the source control integration with the Microsoft Visual Studio .NET languages, you must have the full version of Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Professional, Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Developer, or Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Architect. The Visual Studio .NET development suite provides built-in support for source control operations in the development environment.

RESOLUTION

To use version control with these products, you must use Visual SourceSafe Explorer to add your projects to source control and to perform source control commands such as Checkin and Checkout.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
