Do you mean VSS (Visual SourceSafe)? If so, the big difference is that SourceSafe costs money, and CVS does not. Operating system support may also be an issue. I'm not sure if you can get a CVS server running on Windows (maybe with Cygwin?), and VSS only supports Windows.
SVN (subversion) is another option. The server can run on MacOSX I believe. And there are lots of differences in the finer points, but for most uses, you'll never notice.

I've done some preliminary searching -- including the Flashcoders Archive -- but most of what I've found seems to assume considerable previous knowledge of what it's all about. Could anyone recommend some basic articles and/or tutorials on this subject? Or perhaps suggest approaches that have worked best in your own work environment? ::. clive Durham NC _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
