Due to limitations of a commonly used API that requires VS .NET 2003 for assured compatibility and support, I am forced to use that particular version of the IDE. I also need to do source control in order to qualify for CMMI 5 rating. Based also on a compatibility matrix that shows SourceSafe versions that function with VS .NET 2003, I need to procure VSS 6.0d or VSS 8. How can I download and license a copy of VSS 6.0d? Where can this be purchased? Thanks very much in advance.

Hi Bill,

Hi Bill,

Hi Catherine,

Thanks for the prompt reply. I am looking for SourceSafe 6.0d specifically. Tell me if you will, however, whether SourceSafe is really the way to go or whether Microsoft is about to come up with something better. I have heard that there is a better product offered by Microsoft and that SourceSafe is about to be shelved.

Hi Bill,
