Hi Arriyel

Don't integrate VSS with the project manager.

You shouldn't need to send emails around. ;)

At the bottom of the main .prg add a procedure like this and list all the developers.

PROCEDURE PMJUNK
EXTERNAL PROCEDURE ARRIYEL.PRG
ENDPROC

Create an ARRIYEL.PRG with the name of any new programs or modules created by you.

ARRIYEL.PRG
EXTERNAL PROCEDURE NEWPRG
EXTERNAL FORM ARRIYEL.SCX
EXTERNAL CLASSLIB ARRIYEL.VCX

Do this once for everyone. As people get new files from vss, they will get copied to the developers' machines. Each does a rebuild project, and all the files get pulled in.

>>Hi, All!
>>I'm seeking help for the following problem:
>>We have a small group of developers working on the same project. VSS integrated in IDE and works fine for any module existed in a project. Other words: you can modify any module in a project. When developer adds something to the project (prg, form, class) other developers may not see those modules even if author updates project list (in several cases multiple times).
>>
>>Every developer in the morning does the following:
>>1. Starts VFP and opens project in Project Manager
>>2. Project->Source Control->Update Project List and when finishes
>>3. Project->Source Control->Get Latest version and marking all files in a project.
>>
>>Interestingly enough all-necessary files are under source control and could be seen using “Explorer” – the screen which comes out when you start VSS. What could possibly be wrong? How get latest updates to every developer?
>>
>>Thanks in advance
