Thanks for your help, Toby! I'm thinking of doing the 'get latest' from VSS and checking it in - and for critical projects, moving them to a separate VSS database (with history) & running this converter on them separately.
If anyone else has any other suggestions, do let me know. I'm also curious if there are some general rules that prevent files from getting migrated - i.e. labelling or 'spaces' in project/file names etc.. 2010/2/17 Toby Johnson <t...@etjohnson.us> > Anu, > > If you have a copy of the database from before you ran analyze, I would > recommend trying that version.
