The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual SourceSafe, 32-bit, for Windows, version 5.0

SUMMARY

Unlike Visual SourceSafe 4.x, you cannot set the EOL option cannot within the Visual SourceSafe 5.0 Advance dialog box. In Visual SourceSafe 5.0, the EOL option has to be manually set in the Srcsafe.ini file. This is by design.
