Need some Visual Source Safe help

[DT4K]

I'm using VSS 8.0.
Is there a way that I can get all the files, in the version that they were at on a certain date?
We've been making a bunch of code changes in the past month to accomodate a change in our ERP system. These changes all cause the application to no longer work with the current ERP system. This would have been fine because we were supposed to go live with the new system last weekend. But that date has now been pushed out by a month and some bugs have been discovered in the current production version that cannot wait that long for a fix.

So what I really need to do is to be able to get all the code, the way it existed as of 8/29.

Is there a way this can be done in VSS without going through the history of every file individually to find the correct version for that date?

I don't know of any easy way to do this; but it could possibly be done with a script and the SourceSafe command utility.

This is one reason why you should branch or fork your development tree, so you have the older version still available while you work on the new version. Or at least when starting the new version zip up the old project and keep that version in archive. Live and learn.
