- Hi benny,
The .vspscc file is a Source Control Project Metadata file. The .vspscc file points to the project file, which points to the provider info. When you add a solution into source contol of VSS, the .vspscc file will be created and added to VSS DB automatically. I think you should check it in.
Thanks.

Hi Benny,
The .user file is relate to user preferences and it is not related to the source and compiler. In my option, you don't to add the .user file to the SourceSafe database. The discussion below shows you detailed information.
