You definatly need to check out at least the .SCX and .SCT files, since both files are needed when doing modifications to a form. Look at .SCX as a .DBF and .SCT as a .FPT

.SCA is the textual representation of the form to enable a file comparison in VSS, since VSS doesn't know how to use .SCX and .SCT files. It should be a good thing to check it out also to keep it in sync with the form layout, but it may not be mandatory.

>I just started using visual source safe (after several years of waiting to get around to it). I'm using VSS to check out the modules and form since the project manager is so slow with it. When I check a form out, there are three files, scx,sct,sca. Do I have to check all three out?
