Failed to open project

[Katamneni]

Hi All, I'm facing a problem in opening a ManagedC++ project in VS.net 2003 IDE.I'm able to open the project from the folder where it was created initially.Later i have added that project and sub folders in the project to version control system.When i'm trying to open the project from that folder,IDE is showing,"Failed to open the project".I copied the entire source folder from it's original location to a different folder'but still failing to open the copy of the project except the original project.Can anybody help me what's causing the failure of loading a project in IDE.Our team members are unable to open the project except it's creator. Thanks and Regards Krishna

For one, make sure your working path is set correctly in VSS. While that's probably not the reason for failure, it sure gets annoying. Since the project is a simple text file, open it up and see if any absolute paths are used anywhere. It would seem to be the problem if the creator is the only one that can open it and the default project paths are in %USERPROFILE%\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects, which will be different for everybody.
