SUMMARY
You get a "Too Many File Handles" error while trying to use the Visual SourceSafe that ships with Visual Basic Enterprise Edition.

The following files are available for download from the Microsoft Download Center. Click the file names below to download the files:

Vss0831.Exe]

For more information about how to download files from the Microsoft Download Center, please visit the Download Center at the following Web address

"http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/search.asp" and then click How to use the Microsoft Download Center.

After downloading Vss0831.Exe, run it in an empty directory to extract the two .DLL files. Copy SSVB16.DLL and SSSCC16.DLL into the SourceSafe (client version) WIN directory (for example, C:\VSS\WIN). Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition's Visual SourceSafe version 4.00 for Windows (release 0811). This problem was corrected in Visual SourceSafe (standalone) version 4.00 for Windows (release 0831). The problem was discovered after Microsoft shipped Visual Basic Enterprise 4.00. It is fixed in the Visual SourceSafe 4.0 stand-alone product.
