        For Windows, Visual Studio Enterprise Edition provides "Visual Safe Source" tool. For free downloads, google "cvs for windows". For Linux, check out GNU websites for GNU CVS. Best, Jun

          Try having a look at the first few chapters of Version Control with Subversion[^], which talks about the Subversion[^] product.    Subversion is a pretty nice SCM/RCS product, BTW...    Peace! -=- James
