Visual studio - manipulating directory structure

Hello,

I have a team working with VS 2005 and RTC 2.0.0.2Ifix3.
We would like to know what is the procedire to change our project's directory structure from the VS IDE.
I mean by that, how to move files / directories form one folder on the disk to another and keep them tracked with their history.

Thanks,

Yaron

Hi

I have just tried this. If you use the Solution Explorer, and move your files around, you will keep your history of the files. Are you seeing any different behaviour?

If you move the content outside the control of VS - then History will probably not be retained.

Hi Yaron,

You can move/rename files/folders within a Visual Studio project from Solution Explorer without losing history. If you want to move across projects, then please use the Eclipse client to do so. In 3.0, we'll have better support for this from the Visual Studio client itself.

Regards,
RTC VS Team
