I am trying to get some folders that have labelled in VSS. What I ahve done is: $ Product ACCESSORIES A Accessories A1 -> Labelled as "For_Product_A" Accessories A2 -> Labelled as "For_Product_A" ACCESSORIES B Accessories B1 -> Labelled as "For_Product_A" Accessories B2 -> Labelled as "For_Product_B" Now, when I do a Show History (Included Recursive, Include Labels) and then do a GET by selecting the Label "For_Product_A", i find that that Get is retreiving all the files from ACCESSORIES A & ACCESSORIES B. Why is it so. Can u tell me why this is happening. I have also tried by writing a batch file: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VSS\win32\SS.exe" GET $/Product/*.* -r "-VLFor_Product_A" -yGuest This also does not give me any result. Can u help me with the labelling issue? Thanks in Advance for your help Kabini Hi!!

I am trying to get some folders that have labelled in VSS. What I ahve done is:
$
Product
ACCESSORIES A
Accessories A1 -> Labelled as “For_Product_A”
Accessories A2 -> Labelled as “For_Product_A”
ACCESSORIES B
Accessories B1 -> Labelled as “For_Product_A”
Accessories B2 -> Labelled as “For_Product_B”

Now, when I do a Show History (Included Recursive, Include Labels) and then do a GET by selecting the Label “For_Product_A”, i find that that Get is retreiving all the files from ACCESSORIES A & ACCESSORIES B. Why is it so. Can u tell me why this is happening.

I have also tried by writing a batch file:
“C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VSS\win32\SS.exe” GET $/Product/*.* -r “-VLFor_Product_A” -yGuest

This also does not give me any result.

Can u help me with the labelling issue?

If I try to do a get or checkout at the project level by label using the history view, it does not retrieve any subprojects or any of the files under the subprojects. It is possible to get VSS to retrieve any file or subproject underneath a project by label where the label was applied???

Assigning a new label creates a new version of the file associated with that label, although the file remains the same. Hi Robert,

Can a single revision carry more than one label? I realize that labels are unique identifiers so it would be impossible for the same text string to be assigned more than once as a lable on a given revision. But I have used systems in the past where multiple, distinct labels can exist on a single file revision. Is this possible with source safe? I was hoping you could answer the following.
