Working with VSS and ASP.NET

i created a project to search textfiles with lucene.net. [asp.net/vs08] these textfiles are in a VSS server.

i'm looking for a way how to "check out" or "copy" a Document (later on the w开发者_如何学Pythonhole vss structure with documents) and put it on in a folder on an IIS Server.

how can i do that?

--> copy a document from vss TO Folder on IIS Server [ Later all documents in the original strucutre]

bye the way, its important that the documents keep their original creationdate.

thanks in advance

If by VSS you mean Visual Source Safe, then you would basically need to use its API to get the documents. I.e. a little short of writing a client for it.

Here's an article with info where you can find the VSS API: http://weblogs.asp.net/nilotpal/archive/2006/04/27/444199.aspx
