VSS 2005 Add-in for VB6 does not display glyphs showing shared & checked in/out status for VB6 projects that have any file not 'stored' in VSS, such as a resource file, or any related document, let alone source code not worth checking in yet.

Steps to Reproduce
0. Open VB6, with VSS2005 add-in enabled.
1. Create a VB6 project with two source files.
2. Save the project, and choose to check in the VB6 project file and one of the source files into VSS.
3. Close and reopen the project.
4. Checkout the VB6 project file.
4. Remove the file not checked in from the VB6 project.
5. Refresh the VSS file status (Tools > SourceSafe > Refresh File Status).
Actual Results
After step 2 you see no checkboxes (though I think I have seen them sometimes here).
After step 3 you see no checkboxes.
After step 5 you see the checkbox next to the file in VSS.
Expected Results
The display after steps 2 and 3 should be: a checkbox next to the checked in file, and nothing next to the other file.

Thanks for reporting this. It has been assigned to the SourceSafe Integration team for investigation.

Mark,

This is not a supported scenario - it may work, but we don't directly test VSS2005 and VB6 integration.
You could revert back to an older version of VSS, or upgrade to a newer version of VB that is hosted in the Visual Studio shell.

Thanks for your feedback

OK, any chance you can release the source code of vbscc.dll to let us fix it ourselves?
