Roy,

>actually when we do the "update project list", it doesn't do anything at all, kind of strange, maybe it's up to date but we can't see the files that the other has added.

Are you sure the originator of the new files added them to VSS and then did an Update Project List on their end? "Allow Mutliple Checkout Of Files" has to be turned on for the shared PJM to work properly for everyone...

>We are implementing the shadow folder. Maybe you could give us a few pointers about how this should work. Basically we created a shadow folder let's say on "f:\shadowapp" that now contains the project files. So I go into foxpro and create a regular project in that directory not tied in to Source Safe and just add all the files? and whenever any developer adds new files we must include those files on this project? and at the end we compile from this project.

That sounds good to me! It can be a pain while a project is still in a high state of flux, but once it settles down and doesn't have files being added/deleted, build will be a cakewalk, and you can be assured your builds always have everyone's latest and greatest changes.

Good luck!
