Re: Get Latest Version does not do its job

Hi Corey,

first of all let me say thanks to you for your valuable suggestions...sorry..it was a typo...it shud've been "SOS integrated into .NET". you have assumed it to be Visual Studio. does your suggestion also apply for .NET...? i also ud like to know a web link which may describe the "Best Practices for SOS" or which describes DOs and DONTs of SOS (if any)....if none, SourceGear may think of planning for one...this ud be of GREAT help for other members of this forum. 

thanks again Corey....:)

rgds,
sHIVAPRASADp
