>>I am adding a VFP project to Vault from the VFP IDE and want the directory structure in the repository to automatically mirror that in the disk but don;t know how to go about it. VFP files referenced in my project live in subdirectories of 5 top level directories. The pjx/pjt files are two levels down from the disk root, and and named differently than any directory.

I played with this several iterations few years ago, and just gave it up. Besides, if you edit something in an external editor, or in VFP without the project open, you seem to get into some kind of trouble - don't remember what exactly, because I never got that far.

Then have some discipline with it. After every build, label the whole project tree with the build number, so you can revert if need be. And that's about it.
Thanks for the reply, Dragan. I am trying it now. I'd like to write a small prg to do that "discipline" stuff you talk about. Wonder if Vault can be controlled by automation?
