Separate Source Control binding for project in Visual Studio with SourceSafe

I have added my solution to SourceSafe using Visual Studio. Then in the SourceSafe client I have Shared(and branched) one of the project folders. Now, back in Visual Studio, I want to change the source control location 开发者_C百科for that project to the branched source location. But when I select Change Source Control, I can't select that one project in the list: no matter what project I select, all the projects in the solution show as selected, and if I try to change the location for that project, it complains that I'm trying to set the source control folder for the SOLUTION to an invalid folder. What do I need to do to separate the source control down to project level such that source control folder mappings can be done on a project level?

Yup, it turns out I had to unbind my solution from source control. Then use the Change Source Control dialog to bind each project of my solution individually.

Try this:

Create a blank solution, add just the one project to it. Add the solution to VSS (the project should already be there).

Then change the bindings for that project-solution combo. Save it and close solution.

Now open your original solution back up and check the bindings for your project.
