On that note, I know some code exists to get all the history from VSS into a
git repo.

Subject: RE: VFP and VSS Database does not exist

I've used VSS on W10 with no problem while using VFP's project integration. 

My best guess is this is a VSS pathing/auth issue. Since you say it works at
your client location but not yours, I'd compare the INIs and look for clues
there. Also, can you connect to your local repo using the VSS client?

You might want to give some thought to moving to Git. While I never had any
corruption issues with VSS myself, the fact is it's as unsupported as VFP.
The combination of Doug Hennig's ProjectExplorer and Fernando Bozzo's
FoxBin2PRG makes for a better combination than VSS and once you get your
head wrapped around Git you won't miss VSS at all.

Subject: VFP and VSS Database does not exist

Hello, I wonder if anyone can help please with what may be a simple problem.
I'm trying to use VSS with VFP on my Windows 10 PC with a local VSS database
on my D drive, i.e. not on a network drive.  This works fine on a PC at the
location of a client who I support, which runs XP.  

VSS works fine on its own but when I try to access it from VFP I get
"database XXX does not exist".  I've tried creating a new database but to no
avail.  The srcsafe.ini file is in the VSS folder, so I can't understand
what might be the problem.  Could it be an issue with Windows 10?

 Any pointers would be hugely appreciated!

Martin
