Trying to grab the Vault path for a file or folder

Post by teamjetpoop » Fri Feb 10, 2006 12:32 pm

I tried right clicking on the File or Folder and choosing Properties. What I intend to snarf and barf is the content in the first field, "Name:". It starts with the $ sign. What should I do? I need this information to tell my coworkers where I have left files. Also, is there a URL box where I can just paste this in, press enter, and hop straight to the folder of the URL? Thank you for any heads up. Much appreciated!

Answer to Question 1 Found, but still an issue, thanks

Hi, I was able to find the full path (selectable and all) in the Label... dialog box. By right clicking and then selecting Label... I have the full path completely selectable. That's about right. Thanks. But again, it would be nice if it's also in the properties window (without RT-Fine-Vault-M, I guess this just how I'd expect it to show up if I was in Windows Explorer).

Now I just need a URL box :)

Glad you figured it out.

Another shortcut for items in your changeset. Go to your change set item. Find the file in question, invoke the context menu, and choose "Copy". That will put some information as well as the repository path into your clipboard.

yet another way is to use blame and grab it from the explorer.

Ciao,
