Answer 1

You need a program called sourcesafe 2005. It allows many developers to work on the same solution and the same time. It keeps backup history versions and some cool code merging abilities.



Hope this helps

Answer 2

You can use Visual Source, or SVN, there is an application already developed to accomplish this, it is called "Visual SVN" and It is built to work on Windows Platform as a server. I have used for other purposes, but I believe it is specially built for Visual Studio. NET , look it up : http://www.visualsvn.com/



Good Luck!

Answer 3

if i were you, install the SVN in the server as your repository for updating your programs. and you can also use that for bug fixing or releasing.



assign each programmer to work in a module so they wont overwrite other module. if ever they want to use or write in other module then SVN can handle that.
