Hello,
I am using Visual SourceSafe to configure requirements documents
(Word 2003 format) and having problems with the VSS tags. One of the
tags is
"$Revision:: $"
Which is increment during checkin. For the majority of documents
this works fine, but I have some documents which the VSS tag is not
updated. At digging into the file it appears the documents that are
not work have the VSS tag stored in Unicode. So the letters are
stored in two byte values (e.g., 24 00, which is the dollar sign).
1) I have tried using the ALT+Number input
2) I have tried saving the document as an RTF then back to Word
3) Tried pasting the text from a working document as Text Only
I have looked at the styles for the the working document and the one
that doesn't work, but I can't see any real differences. I tried the
"Reveal Formatting" option, but that didn't help my cause.
Does anyone know how to specify some text to be stored as ASCII within
Word and not Unicode?? Thanks.
