Using version control with projects (Flash Professional only)
Version control in Flash MX Professional 2004 lets you ensure that each author working in a
project file is always using the latest version of a file, and that multiple authors do not overwrite
each other’s work.
To use version-control features, you must define a site for the project. You can specify a local,
network, or FTP connection, or you can specify custom plug-ins for version control systems. If
you experience problems when setting up a remote site, see “Troubleshooting remote folder setup
(Flash Professional only)” on page 51.
On Windows, you can use Flash projects with SourceSafe. You must have Microsoft Visual
SourceSafe Client version 6 installed.
To define a site for version control:
1. Create a new project and add files. See “Creating and managing projects (Flash Professional
only)” on page 46.
2. Select File > Edit Sites.
3. In the Edit Sites dialog box, click New.
4. In the Site Definition dialog box, enter the site name, the local root path, and the e-mail address
and name of the user.
5. To specify a local, network, or FTP connection, select Local/Network or FTP from the
Connection menu. Enter the location information for the Local/Network path or for the
FTP connection and skip the next step.
