hmm… I don’t think that’d fly.
10 PRINT “DBA: We need more disk space for the SQL server!”;
20 PRINT “LAN Admin: We don’t wnat to buy more disks, it’s not good for disaster recovery. Why don’t you put it on the SHARK (a SAN thing)”;
30 PRINT “DBA: Great, yeah, put it on the shark!”;
40 PRINT “LAN Admin: Sorry, we don’t have space for it on the SHARK.”;
50 GOTO 10

Yeah, we use SourceSafe at work too, and it’s not all that great with any large database. You might want to check out SourceGear’s Vault – I’ve used it a bit at home (yay free personal license), and it seems like a very solid product. It even uses SQL Server as a datastore, instead of Windows shares.

cool. We use Visual SourceSafe and it’s kind of a pain for web stuff… works fine for our programmers, but the databases get a bit unmanageable once you have tons of graphics in them.
