How do I migrate the project from my office to my home pc?

I want to develop the project from my home pc and the project is originally in my office developing by a group of developers, myself included. VSS is implemented. I am running win2k pro in my office pc which has visual studio .net installed. The source safe server is on another pc. I tried to zip the source code from my office pc running win2000 and take it home to my home pc running winxp and also has visual studio .net. However, when I tried to open the sln file, it said something like: the c# project file from source control is either missing or is on the source safe server. The source code will be deemed as offline. I am ok with that coz i understand i dont have vss server at home. but it then said: cannot establish c:\inetpub/wwwroot\my username\my project name offline cache coz its parent web is not a hdd based web and is establishing offline cahce in other place,. etc, and then it said some project properties cannot be read. then i saw in my project manager, my project cannot be open.


Sorry for the poor translation, it was in chinese. i just want to do the imgrating the project from my job to my home pc. Thanks for any help.

By the looks of things you are developing a web based app. When you create a
web project with VS.NET, most of the project files are located under
c:\inetpub/wwwroot, in addition a web application is registered with IIS.

If you have not copied it from your work machine, copy the files located in
"c:\inetpub/wwwroot\my username\my project name" to the same location on
your home PC. You have to have IIS installed, it comes with XP professional.
In Explorer you can right-click the folder and select "Sharing and Security
....", select the "Web Sharing" tab and create a web share.

In order to make things easier to move around later, you might want to move
all your projcect files together. Web applications can be located in any
folder and published as described above, they do not have to reside below
inetpub.
