From: TomChapman on 15 Dec 2009 11:17 My company has finally decided to upgrade from Visual C++ version 6 to Visual Studio 2008. Is there a newer version scheduled for release anytime soon? What source code version control should we use? Is SourceSafe good? Are there alternatives that people would recommend for a small company with only a few developers? With SourceSafe are there any concerns or things we should know from the start?

I have no strong feelings, but others do, and like subVersion features. **** > >With SourceSafe are there any concerns or things we should know from the >start? **** I;ve had no problems. Many of the limitations, however, seem to annoy other people with large development teams. The ability to use it over a network (remote development sites) has been said to cause problems, but I've used a couple different products (one of my clients has his source on a server in Oklahoma, for example) that work with SourceSafe and we've had no problems, but we have only three developers on the project. The machine on which I do the work has been turned off for six months, so I don't recall the name of the product. But google "SourceSafe remote" and you will get several products displayed, which can tell you why they think they are better than SourceSafe. joe Joseph M.
