VSS Automation - VSSItem.Add problems

Hey everyone, I'm sure this is a simple fix, but I just seem to missing something...

I am using the C# COM wrapper with InteropServices.

I have tried all the below calls, and they return the error below:

tempParent.Add("C:\\index.html", "File promoted from DEVELOPMENT", 0);

tempParent.Add("C:\\index.html", "File promoted from DEVELOPMENT", (int)Flags.VSSFLAG_DELNO);

L07_Debug 7/25/2005 11:25:53 AM PC127782 SSEXP.EXE Testing Ciosor.GetItem - Creation Loop - ERROR: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8004D694): Error loading resource string
   at SourceSafeTypeLib.IVSSItem.Add(String Local, String Comment, Int32 iFlags)
   at ActewAGL.PromotionManager.GetItem(VSSItem tempParent, StringCollection tempPaths) in c:\temp\actewagl\actewagl\ciosor.cs:line 267

The really wierd thing is that it worked once, and that was it. I did a permanent delete of the file in question, but there kept coming back.

This has me a little puzzled, so if anyone could shed any light on what exactly is going on here that would be great.

Thanks for the help.

    I doubt you're getting "An item with the name already exists" error returned from GetItems. Does the error code reported by GetItems contain a different error code than 0x8004D694

    What did you do to fix the Add

    0x8004D694 means "An item with the name already exists", so you probably had the file in the database already. Were you deleting it from a different location than where you were adding it through IVSS
    Are you sure you get the same error code from the GetItems method
