I'm working on a project for a firm that has their main solution in sourcesafe. The other developers are working like beavers on new stuff, and I'd like to be able to download the source from VSS, then disconnect it. So I can get up to speed on the code without risk of bothering anyone else's code.
Is it possible to do this? Many thanks if so.

It's been a while since the scary days of source safe, but i believe this is what you have to do. In Visual Studio, go to File -> Source Safe -> Change Source Control (?). It'll open up a new window and list projects under current solution bound to Source Safe. Select the project you want to remove and click 'Unbind' at the top. It'll remove source safe bindings from the project. If you have to bind again, just click 'Bind' and select the location in the repository to bind to.
