Working with a source control system

When you develop trial definitions with the InForm Architect application, it is strongly recommended that you work in conjunction with a source control system such as Microsoft Visual Source Safe. A source control system enables you to preserve versions of your trial definitions and prevents you from losing work because of local system failure.

As a general practice, you should check trial definitions into your source control system each time you perform a Save All, Save Study, or Save by Component operation.
