We have the following folder structure in VSS.

Code:
MyProject
      Code
            Folder1
            Folder2
            Folder3

I am trying to create a branch at "Code" folder and call it "branch centera".

So I right click on the "Code" folder and select "Share" and also check the "Recursive" checkbox. When I click on ok it gives me the following error "A project cannot be shared under a descendent".

Please let me know how to do this.

Hi,

You will get the error message if you attempt to create a branch of a project in a subproject of that project. This is not allowed in VSS. Please branch the project to another folder to see how it works.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot.
Can you please let me know branch the project to another folder. It does not ask me the name of the folder where I can branch it to.
