I too get the "file ... already open" error message, when trying to create a project (folder) within a project (folder). Does anyone have a solution to this?

Forget my last posting. I figured it out.

Thanks!

In our .Net solution I have added $History: $ and $Log: $ to our source files (actually I am testing it with just a couple of files first). We have both *.vb (VB.NET) and *.cs (C#) files in the solution. I added the Key Words to both a C# file and a VB.NET file. After checking in I can view the file in Source Safe and the C# file expands the Key Words as expected, but the VB.NET file did not expand them. The same goes when I try to view the file with Visual Studio.

In my srcsafe.ini file . . .

Keyword_Masks = *.vb, *.cs

[Keyword Comments]

*.vb = "' "

*.cs = "// "

Any idea what I did wrong for the VB.NET files?

Thanks in advance,

Kurt
