Hello.
I am having many problems in my attempts to integrate Dreamweaver MX and MS 
Visual Source Safe.
Here's what's currently happening...

Background: There are a few of us developing an application. We have been 
instructed to develop and test on our local machines...We have a source safe db 
already created, and need to be able to check our cf code in and out from VSS.
Once the files are ready to move to the 'build' machine, we check them into 
source safe, and they will be deployed to the server (probably using VSS Shadow 
folders).

I created all that I needed in VSS, to include setting up a 'Working Folder'. 
The VSS is located on another box (in the same domain).
Next, I opened up Dreamweaver (which is running on my local machine), and 
created a 'New Site'. 
I set up my 'Local Site' (under 'Local Info') to read from the folder I set up 
in VSS as my 'Working Folder'. Next, my 'Remote Site'(under 'Remote Info') is 
set up with the 'Access' option set to SourceSafe Database (version: 1.02), and 
I also set the proper settings under the 'Settings' tab. Also, I have checked 
the two check boxes (one that states: 'Automatically upload files to server on 
save’ and the other which states: 'Check out files when opening'). Lastly, my 
Testing Server is set up to place files on my local box. From here I can view 
the application through my local box (I have CF and IIS installed on my box).

Ok, so here's what I run into...

I double click on a file from the 'Files' window, while under the 'Local View', 
make some changes, save the file, and close it. While the file was open, the 
file did not show as 'checked out' in VSS (even if I rt-clicked the file and 
said check out, it still does not appear to be checked out in VSS). The changes 
I made to the file now appear under the Local View, and the Testing Server 
view. However, they do not appear under the Remote view. So I right-click on 
the file in the 'File' window while in 'Local View', and select 
'Synchronize...', this says that it will update the 'Remote Folder', however, 
it comes and tells me that synchronization is not necessary. If I select the 
file I edited/saved in the 'File' window, and 'Put' it, that does not put it 
into the remote site either.

Now, if I switch to the 'Remote View' under the 'File' window, and dbl-click a 
file, it will open the file, and check it out from VSS as well 
(automatically)...I can check in from here as well. I just can not get any of 
the changes I made to this 'remote view'.

Any information would be greatly appreciated. I am open to anything.
Also, I had found this yesterday, but don't know how involved this solution 
would be...or if it is the only solution... hopefully not :)
Or maybe I need to get 'Contribute'.

Thanks!
