I've also discovered the "treeclean" option in tfpt, meaning I don't need to manually do a clean of all the solutions first.
The following command will delete all files in the current folder and sub-folders that are not under source control. Warning, it'll whack your solution and project user options files too :) tfpt treeclean -delete Regards, Damian Edwards Readify | Senior Consultant M: 0448 545 868 | E: [EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | C: [EMAIL PROTECTED]<sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | W: www.readify.net<http://www.readify.net/> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Scott Colestock Sent: Monday, 16 June 2008 22:31 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [OzTFS] RE: Copying files from TFS2005 server project to TFS2008 server project I've had reasonable luck with this very approach, though once you copy stuff over, do an attrib -r *.* /s on the destination folder, or tfpt online won't recognize the additions. (You can even take this approach multiple times with successive labels from the source tree to preserve a semblance of history. TFPT will recognize deletions, too, if you're careful how you copy stuff.)

Copy your source from the TFS2005 workspace to the TFS2008 workspace. You might want to do a clean on the TFS2005 project first so you don't copy bin/obj files, etc. Use the TFS 2008 Power tools command "tfpt online" (check the options) in your TFS2008 workspace folder. You should then see all the files as pending adds and you can do a check in from there.

I'm thinking I can do it via a local workspace copy/paste but I'd like to know what other options there are. Source control history isn't required but if there is an easy method that will bring that across that would be a bonus.
