Windows NT 4.0
DevStudio/VC 5.0
Visual SourceSafe 5.0

I have a VC++ project which has a number of header and source files in the
project directory.  Some of those files appear in the "Header Files"
section and some appear in the "External Dependencies" section.  I can use
SourceSafe to check the files out that are in the Header section through
the developer Studio, but not the files in the External Dependencies
section.
For those files, I need to run the SourceSafe application.
What do I need to do to have files in the Header section and not the
External Dependencies section?

If the files are really part of your project, and not external
dependencies, then drag them out of the external dependencies folder into
another folder.

FYI, DevStudio assumes any header file not in the same directory as
the project is an external header.  If you've structured your project
to use subdirectories, this would be why they've been placed there.

Worse then the VSS problem... you won't have ClassView for any
classes/data contained in these header files.
