Disable or exclude source files without deleting them?

[ITAlan]

Is there a way to easily disable/exclude selected files/folders within the source files list? I could enter them into the Exclude list, but if I want to do some quick testing or modifications, its better than deleting and re-entering them from Source.

Thanks!

Hmm... don't think there is an easy way to achieve that.

Thanks for the confirmation. Any possibility of adding a checkbox feature to enable/disable each file? Thanks!

As far as I know there is no standard windows dialog that allows this, so the dialog must be created from scratch. Surely doable, but will take some time and efforts.

Indeed, it would require a good bit of code to implement and manage all of that. I appreciate your feedback.

I assume you're using something with .net and using a list box for that display. If that's true, can't you just change it to a checked list box. It's gets you checks, but then I assume it requires a fair amount of work behind it so it both saves the checks and respects them during a backup.
