   unable to add  existing files to a  project in Visual Studio .Net 2003
  Hi,I have converted a workspace(A.dsw) from VC++ 6.0 to VC++ 7.1(A.sln).The solution A.sln has three projects in it B,C,D.My software configuration management is done in Rational clear case.Below is the hierarchy in my clearcase explorer.  |  |----jkl  |  |----abc|---------abc_source|---source files|---header files|---------abc_proj(*.vcproj,A.sln,*.vcproj.vspscc,..)When I tried to add an existing source file to one of the projects I got this following message box.Some of the files you are adding to your project are located outside the project's binding root.These files cannot be source controlled unless they are moved.  In the soultion explorer in my IDE ,when I tried to add one of the files from the folder abc_source\source files to any of the projects source files folder  in the solution, I got the above message.When I pressed OK nothing happened and the file did not get added to the project.Could anyone please help me in this regard.Thanks&Regards,Rohini Chandra   
  This doesn't sounds like a problem with the IDE itself, but rather a problem with ClearCase. "Binding root" is not a term used by the VS IDE as far as I know, but Google seems to suggest that it is a ClearCase related term (I'm not familiar with ClearCase so I can't guess what that error message means).   ;Quote:Original post by jpetrie"Binding root" is not a term used by the VS IDE as far as I know, but Google seems to suggest that it is a ClearCase related term (I'm not familiar with ClearCase so I can't guess what that error message means).I think it's part of MSSCCI terminology. MSSCCI is what Clearcase uses to integrate in VS.
