That's why I'm recommending that you separate your source control process from your development tool IDE. It should make no difference whether you use VFP, VB, C++ or whatever. You're still dealing with maintaining versions of text and binary files. Dealing with it from the source control environment will also allow you to become more familair with the version control process.
