>That is my impression too. But as of my recent thread where Sergey responded, I also discovered that SCCTEXT.prg can also convert DBC to text files. If such is the case is the VSS API capable to managing DBC check ins by having the latest version in the SC

We use VSS for years now. VSS may hold any file. There is a file type hidden in the properties dialog of each file (VSS Explorer)

What you do with your dbf's depends on what result you want.
1. multiuser environment with the possibility to sync between users (via VSS). You need to have text files stored in VSS.

2. You simple want to keep track of the changes and like to store old versions. You may store the DBC/dct/dcx directly to the VSS. Just set the files as binary.

3. Use the VSS integration VFP shiped with VFP. Simply add the DBC to a project that is under VSS and add the it to vss. If you need to work with the DBC you need to check out, but VFP will take care to handle all (DBC/dct/dcx) files.
