Hi!

Close the database at all. You cannot close it within the command window if project has opened that datbase. Select the database in the project manager and press "Close" button. Then try again.

BTW, it is not good idea at all to add the database to the VSS, because it is marked as read-only. When testing application, you require to unmark it from read0only state just to runn test (without any changes in the table structures). When developing application, database files and their content are not important, only database structure is important. So make a PRG file using GENDBC utility and put that PRG file under VSS. Each time database changed, re-generate that PRG file and update it at VSS. This way you will also be able to track changes in the database structure using usual VSS approaches.
