How to use CVS with VBA?

I'm not sure if this is off topic, or belongs to another
list.  If so, I 
appologize.

I've been using CVSNT for years already with my PHP, HTML
& Java code and 
love it.  Recently, however, I've been starting to work with
VBA apps. 
Specifically, an MS Access database application.  I'm stuck,
however, trying 
to understand if/how there is a way to use CVS for source
controlling my VBA 
code in my MDB application.

My knowledge of VBA development is still rather limited, so
forgive me if 
this sounds like a silly question.  The only way I know to
access the Access 
VBA code is to open the mdb in access, and from there open
the Visual Basic 
Editor (version 6.5).  When I save the VB code, it saves it
within the MDB 
file.

I realize that I can check in and check out the entire MDB
every time, but 
that seems extremely inefficient - both in terms of space
(it is a binary 
file, so would have to checkin over a meg every time), and
in terms of 
source control - I won't be able to see differences between
versions, or 
roll back and forth easily, etc...

Does anyone have any ideas how (or even if) it is possible
to use CVS on VBA 
files?  I can only imagine this would apply to any MS
product - like Excel, 
Access, Word, etc....


If I should be posting this to another list, please let me
know!

Thanks,

Eric
