I have a couple of questions regarding Visual Sourcesafe. I have a .NET c# project I want to get a copy of and compile. I have the date when it was uploaded and that is the version I need to recompile. I had never used sourcesafe before so my two rookie questions are these:

  1. Can I extract a full project from that specific day?
  2. Will that mess up the current version of that same project?

Thanks!

To get all the files in a project on a specific date you have to use the command line, like this:

ss Get "$/YourProjectName" -R -Vd19-09-2013;3:20p

Note: -R is recursive get and -Vd gets a version at a specific date. Also take note of the SourceSafe date format.

Read Get (Command Line) for more information.
