SYMPTOMS
========
If your Visual Basic project uses a Resource (.RES) file and is under Source
Code Control with Visual SourceSafe, you may receive the following error message
when checking in just the .RES file:
Can't load file <path>\<filename>.RES in the Visual Basic
project. Ensure the Visual Basic project file is checked out.
CAUSE
=====
Visual Basic fails to reload the file when Visual SourceSafe calls the reload
method on the project template item for .RES file.
WORKAROUND
==========
If the .VBP file is checked out when the .RES file is being checked in, the
error message can be ignored.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the
beginning of this article.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Steps to Reproduce Problem
--------------------------
1. Open a Visual Basic project that contains a custom Resource File (.RES).
2. Add the project to Source Code Control.
3. Check out the entire project (including the .VBP).
4. Check in just the .RES file. The following error message will display:
Can't load file <path>\<filename>.RES in the Visual Basic
project. Ensure the Visual Basic project file is checked out.
5. Click OK. The .RES file is checked in and everything else is still checked
out.
6. Check out just the .RES file. The above error message will display again.
7. Click OK. The .RES file is checked out and everything else is still checked
out.
