>>Then you're losing some of the capabilities of source control. VFP is slow because it converts to/from the text file when you check in/out. If you don't do it through VFP you check in/out the binary files, which greatly increases your storage space. With text files, VSS & PVCS both store just the delta code.


I don't use VSS, so I can't say if VFP does this or not.
