Yes, my problem is that I've 2 solutions in 2 different VSS databases. I'd
like to open a new solution with Visual Studio 2003 and take Projects from
both solutions.
Could be possible?

From my experience VStudio does not want to know about 2 different VSS
locations for the one project. The location of the project is stored in the
project files. We have found if you change the database location you need to
rebuild these files. So I don't think it would be possible.
Unless you can find a VSS MVP or MS support directly who might be able to
provide a solution.
sorry

No. There's even an error message: Only one database connection at a time is
supported.
