SYMPTOMSIn Visual Basic, when you run the SourceSafe CheckOut Command, the following error message displays in Visual Basic:
"All available files have already been checked out" CAUSEThe project was open in Visual Basic when it was moved or renamed in the Visual SourceSafe Explorer. Because the project was moved or renamed, the SourceSafe Add-In in Visual Basic can no longer can find it.
RESOLUTIONIn the Visual SourceSafe Explorer, when you run SourceSafe commands that impact a project open in Visual Basic, click Refresh File Status on the Add- Ins / SourceSafe menu. By refreshing the project file status, Visual Basic is able to get in sync with Visual SourceSafe. If you run Refresh File Status after the series of steps listed in the "Steps to Reproduce Behavior" section of this article, this message appears:
Project <old VSS project location> has been moved or renamed to <found VSS project location>. Would you like to connect to this project?This project location may or may not be the project you want. In most cases, it probably is, so you can click OK and you continue on with your work. If you click Cancel, the following error message displays:
Project <old VSS project location> was not found. Would you like to browse for the project?If you know the new location or new name for the file, click Yes, and select the new project location or name. If you click No, the following error message displays:
The project "<old VSS project location>", <VSS Database File> no longer exists in SourceSafe. You must either recover or re-create the project before you can use this project with source code control.At this point, there is no longer any link between any Visual SourceSafe project and the project you currently have open in Visual Basic.
STATUSThis behavior is by design.
