Tamas,

Thank you very much for taking to time to type that explanation, it's very helpfull.  As I understand it I can not delete a file revision as such, only a tag which points to that revision.  e.g. If I do a log on one of the affected files I get the following (names changed to protect the guilty!):

cvs log CalForm.frm

  RCS file: /Research/sfp/gui/CalForm.frm,v
  Working file: CalForm.frm
  head: 1.13
  branch:
  locks: strict
  access list: 
  symbolic names:
          V1_6: 1.12
          V1_5: 1.12
          v1_4_rc1: 1.12
          v1_3: 1.11
  keyword substitution: kv
  total revisions: 13;    selected revisions: 13
  description:
  ----------------------------
  revision 1.13
  date: 2007/05/03 10:18:30;  author: Joe.Blogs;  state: dead;  lines: +1 -1;
    kopt: kv;  commitid: 1ec4639b6f426ee;  filename: CalForm.frm;
  *** empty log message ***
  ----------------------------
  revision 1.12
  date: 2005/09/12 13:57:31;  author: A.N.Other;  state: Exp;  lines: +118 -63
  ;  kopt: kv;  commitid: 3b44325894a0000;
  * Change name of module setup form to "SFP - Module Setup" was "XFP -..."
 
     ...etc...etc...


Revision 1.13 in this case have "state: dead".  What does this mean? Can 1.13 be effectively removed, or rolled back to 1.12. or do we just have to live with this?  

Regards

Mike
