Version control of FM documents/books

[Eason, David]

Radha,

If you are not anti-Microsoft, you might want to consider Visual
SourceSafe. I used it quite successfully in the same environment you
describe. VSS can handle large Frame files with no path sensitivity
concerns. The check-in/check-out and access permissions processes are
fairly easy, and housing VSS on a server or drive is easy to install and
configure.

Subject: Version control of FM documents/books

Hi, greetings!
   
  I use FM 7.0 with Windows XP. 
  For the projects that I work with, I am the sole
writer(modifier)/owner of the documents.
  As of now, the FM documents are in the hard disk of my machine and
periodically we ensure that they are backed up.
   
  I wish to know whether we can use CVS for version control of FM
files/books and how the path sensitivity of FM /size of books will
effect this. Or what is the best way to ensure version control of FM
docs/books?
   
  TIA for the suggestions.
   
  Regards
  Radha
