VS 2003 and Vs2005 using MSSCCI provider

Hello all,
I have vs 2003 and vs 2005 installed on the same machine. I have a 2003 solution that's inside TFS source control and i've installed MSSCCI provider to use with my vs 2003.

In the moment that I open Vs2003 and choose MSSCCI provider, it automatically opens vs2005 and i cant work on my solution, because its not converted yet.

Does anyone know how could i use the vs2003 without need to uninstall vs 2005

Thanks!

    Hello,

    The "File->Source Control->Team Foundation Server Msscci Provider" is the command to run external tool for the active msscci provider - in the case of TFS, it's VS2005. To start working with Msscci you just need to:

    • File->Source Control->Open From Source Control to select project that exist on the server
    • File->Source Control->Add to Source Control to add the active solution/project to source control

    Keep in mind that if your project is in TFS (as you say) but it was not added using VS2003 it means that it does not have correct bindings. You need to do:

    • checkout project and solution files manually
    • open the solution using VS2003
    • go to File->Source Control->Change Source Control and Bind it to the location where it exists on the server
    • Check in the changes

    Hope this helps
