SYMPTOMS
When you have more than one project in a Visual Basic group (vbg) file and one of the projects references another, performing a get on the referenced project in Visual SourceSafe will cause the following error to occur:

Failed to Reload the Project. Please close the project from the file menu and re-open it to get the correct versions of all the files loaded into memory.

 * 4) From the Visual Basic Project menu, click References and then add a reference to the second project in the group. Click OK.
 * 5) In Visual SourceSafe, go to the SourceSafe menu and click "Get Latest Version" to try to perform a get on the second project. The error occurs.
