It allows tracking, monitoring and recovery of older source code. Visual SourceSafe (VSS) is Microsoft's source code control product for Microsoft Visual Studio. In this session, we will walk through the steps of installing and configuring VSS for multiple developer access over a network, demonstrate how VSS can be integrated directly into developer's IDEs, and review the essential maintenance needed to keep VSS working smoothly. Add-on products and the latest news will also be covered.
