VSS ISSUE VISUAL STUDIO

When adding a project to a VSS some times the window doesnt show the network folders but asks for entering a DNS Address(in other words VSS over internet).

Solution is as follows:

Vs 2005 :
TOOLS -- Options -- Menu
choose Source Control and from the Current source control plugin in the right change the drop down value from Microsoft Visual SourceSafe(internet) to Microsoft Visual SourceSafe



You will be all set :)
