Can you grab an older timestamped version of a MS SourceSafe project?

I need an old version of a project from Microsoft Source Version Control System. Specifically, there are changes across several files that need to be reverted back to a开发者_Python百科n older release due to errors. Is this possible in that program?

From your question I'm guessing you didn't create a label? After every release you should label the project to create a point you can go back to. Failing that I think it's strictly a manual process of getting each file back to a certain point.

It's been many years since I used SourceSafe (thank Deity, get out while you can!), but I believe it's possible with the command line tool, ss, using perhaps the ss Get command: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/661w6e3d(v=vs.80).aspx

You can give a date using the -V option: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cya2z0zz(v=vs.80).aspx
