>>Well, there's not a general topic for source code control, so I'll just ask this general question here . . .

I'm also just looking for general recommendations on which system might be the best.

http://vfpx.codeplex.com/Wiki/View.aspx?title=SubFoxSubFox is a ways off and so I don't think I can really include that in the list of candidates. There do seem to be some ways to work with Subversion by using SCCText or an alternate (there are a few). I have heard of problems with VSS - a lot of people using it with VFP don't seem to be too enthralled with it. Seems like, overall, people like Subversion better. Thanks for your reply.
