Accessing VSS Programmatically

[ITA]

Hi!

I want to check out/ check in/ Get latest version the certain folders/ documents/ vis from Microsoft VSS- using LabVIEW program. I am using automation Open function to open session on VSS server. But it is throwing the error message as Error- 2147221164 class not registered.

Which Class (.dll) do I need to register?

Attaching my vi to this message. Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks!

How Do I Manually Register Type Libraries, ActiveX Controls, and ActiveX Servers?

Hi Muks,

Thanks for the link. But which .dll/ .tlb/ .ocx file(s) do I need to register in this case? Where can I locate it?

Yes. Why don't you just use the Source Control VIs?

Hi Smercurio,

I don't have LabVIEW PDS version. I have only FDS version available. Source control VIs work with PDS versions.

Use the following ActiveX class: SourceSafeTypeLib.IVSSDatabase

No!.!!...!!!

It returns the same error

[TCPlomp]

Do you have the ActiveX interface installed (I believe it's an option when installing SourceSafe)

In your example you use a control, try to use a constant (like my snippet)?

Hi Ton,

I am not sure whether the ActiveX interface is installed at VSS server. Is there a way to check this and in case it was not selected during installation, can I do some thing now?

I am wondering, why control shouldn't be working where as constant can work!
