Source Safe
 

I'm new to using Visual Build so please bear with me.

My Visual Build project is in a certain directory, say "C:\VisualBuild".
When I use the SourceSafe action to get the latest version for my VS.NET projects, all the VS.NET project files are written in the Visual Build project directory even though in the SourceSafe action I specify to check out the files to my proper VS.NET directory.

How can I prevent the files from being written to the Visual Build directory?

Thx in advance.

The files should end up in the folder specified in the 'Path for local files' field. This gets passed to ss.exe's -GL flag: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...e_SwitchG.asp. Are you definitely populating that field with a valid path? Maybe start with the SourceSafe.bld sample and see if the get steps work correctly, and go from there.
