SUMMARY
=======

Under the topic Toolbar_Size, the online documentation for Visual SourceSafe 5.0
for Windows incorrectly states that users can set the size of the toolbar
command buttons in the Visual SourceSafe Explorer by manipulating the
Toolbar_Size initialization variable in a user[ASCII 146]s Ss.ini.

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

Each user has an Ss.ini. For example, if you edit the Ss.ini in the
<VSS_SERV>/users/guest directory (where VSS_SERV is the directory path of
the Visual SourceSafe server installation) you will see various settings used by
Visual SourceSafe to customize that user[ASCII 146]s Visual SourceSafe Explorer.
In version 4.0x, the adjustment of the Toolbar_Size initialization variable (for
example, Toolbar_Size = 24) changes the size of the command buttons to large or
small. This functionality was removed in version 5.0, but the documentation was
not updated to reflect this. Changing the Toolbar_Size initialization variable
in Visual SourceSafe 5.0 has no effect.
