How about just using some source control like Subversion?

It is as you said, simple use something as Windows Exporer (not the Solution
Explorer) outside visual studio.
Not any problem at all.

OK so I am a lazy SOB but
why is there no(?) way to copy AND change the name
instead of copy - change name - copy back - delete temp folder?
Or why does VB 2005 not have Save Project as ...?
Or am I the only person who ever wanted a copy with a
different name in the same folder?
Just curious.

When you first save your project in VS 2005, there's "Save All" under
File menu that allows you to define project name and location to save,
after you saved, you can copy and paste the project folder in My
Documents\Visua l Studio 2005\Projects location then rename the copied
folder as you wish to make a exact copy.

Maybe I don't understand what you say but
I want a copy of the project in same folder with different name.
It would be so easy if I could open the project in VB
and then Save Project as ... using a different name - but can't.
It would also be nice if I could copy to same folder with different
name - but can't. So 4 steps needed for 1 operation (+errors).
Why should it be there, are most people know Windows Explorer.

Personally I think it is a horrid idea, especially in a team
environment. It would be incredibly difficult (imo) to merge all the
various projects in their different states into a RC quality project.
A much better way (again imo) is to use source control and just to a
get latest version into a different directory if you need to do a
volatile experiment. Minor changes and development should be done
normally, your source control should do the tracking on stable
versions, not the developer.

I also want to copy a project, but for perhaps different reasons:
As far as I can see Visual Studio only lets you have one project
configuration for one solution configuration, which is a problem. I have
two executables in my solution, one which depends on the DLL version of
a library, that other depends on the static version of that library. The
project for the library is also in my solution.
There seems to be no way (please correct me if I'm wrong, it would make
my like easier) to build the solution once and get all the items I
require (two executables, one dll, one static lib).
It's been recommended to me to copy the library project so that I have
two identical projects, one that builds a dll and one that builds the
static, and then have both in my solution. Horrible way to do things,
but is there a way around it?
Doing a simple copy of the vcproj file does not work, does anyone know
how to copy a project as indicated by the OP?
Thanks,
Tommy.

Hi, Is this a stupid question?
Senario: Two tables linked together with an ID number.
Question: When using a combo box, which refences another table by
indexed autonumber, is there a way to copy the returned text value to
a text field. I have many combo boxes and after the value changes I
would like a normal text field to show the returned text value,
regardless of which combo box was changed.
