I've looked at everything I could find on the web relating to SVN with VFP. Christof's article is the best resource. I've actually pulled his code and done some modification to it to put the xml file into subfolders and only re-convert files that have been changed since the last check-in/check-out. There are still enough possible issues that I'm not completely comfortable pushing it out to my dev team.

>>That's a fair question, and perhaps that is where I should start. I would like to implement a better source control system than the manual method we are currently using. I have spent a fair amount of time working with subversion, and while it can be made to work, it is fairly tricky to do conversion in and out of binary files.

>>I had seen a post from you last year sometime indicating you were might be doing a write up on VFP with TFS, so I figured the idea must have some merit.

>>>My understanding is there is supposed to be a new version of the COM-based source control API. If so, it should work.
>>>
>>>But just wondering...why use VFP with TFS?
