Hi kh,

If you have checked "Branch after share" when sharing, deleting the
branched project will not impact the original one.

After branching from the original project, you can open it directly from
the VSS database. (In the Open dialog box, select SourceSafe(LAN) from the
left.) The binding information will be applied only when opening the
solution. So don't worry about bindings.

If anything is unclear, please feel free to let me know.

Note: The MSDN Managed Newsgroup support offering is for non-urgent issues
where an initial response from the community or a Microsoft Support
Engineer within 1 business day is acceptable. Please note that each follow
up response may take approximately 2 business days as the support
professional working with you may need further investigation to reach the
most efficient resolution. The offering is not appropriate for situations
that require urgent, real-time or phone-based interactions or complex
project analysis and dump analysis issues. Issues of this nature are best
handled working with a dedicated Microsoft Support Engineer by contacting
Microsoft Customer Support Services (CSS) at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/subscriptions/support/default.aspx.
