SUMMARY
There are two commands that can be used to synch Web sites. They are Recalculate Links and Synchronize Files.



MORE INFORMATION
These two commands are documented in the Visual InterDev help file (see "References"), but they don't detail what they do when the project is under Source Control.

Recalculate Links
This command updates the Web site to contain everything in Visual SourceSafe. Thus, any files that have been added to the project in Visual SourceSafe are then brought down onto the Web server.

Steps
 * 1) Add a file to the project in Visual SourceSafe.
 * 2) Open the Web project in Visual InterDev.
 * 3) Right-click the project file in Project Explorer and select Recalculate Links.

NOTE: The same can be done from FrontPage by selecting Tools and then choosing Recalculate Hyperlinks.

Synchronize Files
This command does not have any effect in Visual SourceSafe; it functions the same way that the Visual InterDev documentation states, irrespective of Source Control.
