Hi guys,

Is there really no VSS' create command action out there? Or am I&nbsp;missing something (obvious)?

Thanks,

Miha

BTW this entry message page looks awful in Firefox 3.6.

Hi Miha,   
  
 You’re not missing anything, FinalBuilder currently does not have a create action for SourceSafe, when we write the version control system actions we usually try to pick the most common commands that would be used during a build process. It would not be practical to create an action for every command as most will never be used, but we do usually try to create a Generic [VCS] action so that when we don’t support it explicitly you can use the generic action. In saying that though, VSS does not have a generic action either, so we’ll implement the create action now and add the generic action to the to-do list.   
  
 I’ll let you know when a test build is available.   
  
 Regards,   
 Paul.

Hi Paul,

Ok, good. BTW, I&nbsp;need Create command to create a branched version - I&nbsp;am placing it in VERSION\_NUMBER folder. Right now I&nbsp;am workarounding with "Execute Program"&nbsp;action.
