TITLE   :ACC97: Customizing Command Bar Does Not Prompt for Check-Out
PRODUCT :Microsoft SourceSafe
PROD/VER:WINDOWS:4.0,4.0a,5.0,97
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Access 97 
 - Microsoft Visual SourceSafe for Windows, versions 4.0, 4.0a, 5.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

Advanced: Requires expert coding, interoperability, and multi-user skills.

This article assumes that you are using Microsoft Visual SourceSafe to control
the source code for your Microsoft Access 97 database, and that you are familiar
with the client-side features of Microsoft Visual SourceSafe.

For more information about Microsoft Visual SourceSafe, please refer to the
"Visual SourceSafe User's Guide."

If you make a quick customization to a command bar by using the keyboard
shortcuts and you do not check out the "Data and Misc Objects" file from the
SourceSafe database, you will not be prompted to check out the file, and your
changes will be discarded the next time that you check out the file.

CAUSE
=====

Microsoft Access does not inform Visual SourceSafe of all status changes in
cases where the user interface is bypassed with keyboard shortcuts or custom
methods.

RESOLUTION
==========

Make sure to check out the "Data and Misc Objects" file from SourceSafe whenever
you are customizing command bars.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------

1. Create a new database called TestCmdBar.

2. Using the right mouse button, click the active command bar and click
   Customize.

3. Click the New button and accept the default name of "Custom 1" for the new
   command bar.

4. Close the Command Bar Customize dialog box.

5. On the Tools menu, point to SourceSafe, and then click "Add Database to
   SourceSafe."

6. Create a project folder and add the database to SourceSafe.

7. On the Tools menu, point to SourceSafe, and then click Check Out.

8. Check out the "Data and Misc Objects" file.

9. Hold down CTRL+ALT on the keyboard and drag a command bar button from the
   active command bar to the "Custom 1" command bar.

10. On the Tools menu, point to SourceSafe, and then click Check In.

11. Check in the "Data and Misc Objects" file.

12. Hold down CTRL+ALT on the keyboard and drag a command bar button from the
   active command bar to the "Custom 1" command bar.

   NOTE: You are not prompted at this point to check out the "Data and Misc
   Objects" file, even though you are clearly making a modification to this
   file.

13. On the Tools menu, point to SourceSafe, and then click Check Out.

14. Check out the "Data and Misc Objects" file. Note that your last change to
   the "Custom 1" command bar was discarded by the check out from Source Code
   Control.
