Hi Dale,  
  
First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue. From  
  
your description, I understand that you need to make a copy of your current  
  
project in VSS. If there is any misunderstanding, please feel free to let  
  
me know.  
  
You can use the share/branch option to get a copy. Here are the steps:  
  
1. Open VSS Explorer. Right click $/ in the left tree. Select Share to $/  
  
from the left tree.  
  
2. In the popup window, select a project you need to copy.  
  
3. Make sure to check "Branch after share" checkbox and click share button.  
  
4. Type a new name for the branch and check Recursive.  
  
5. Click OK button.  
  
HTH.
