Hi!

Do not include databases and free tables into the VSS when they're external to exe file. In addition, check if all files exists really. We never had such problem. This is not in VSS.

PJX/PJT files are not required there, you can join to existing project on VSS and VFP will re-create the entire project by using the PJM file. This requires, though, checking in and checking out the PJM file manually in the VSS interfacem when actions for all other files are available from the VFP.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
