SourceSafe Data File Update

Normal processing for the checkin of an updated file:

If the old data file has a .a extension, the updated data file is copied into the file system as a .b

The old .a and new .b files are compared, and the difference (delta) saved in the 'log' file

The 'log' file's internal reference is changed to reference the new .b data file.

The old 'data' .a file is deleted, leaving the new 'data' .b file.
