The concept is ok, but it doesn't work well for me either. The whole check
in and check out process is too clumsy! This should be number one priority
for fixing in the next version. I have had lots of problems too.
On another note, are all of your paths set up correctly, don't take
offense, just asking, 2. is your project file looking in the same place as
it did when you closed it?. 3. when you open up the file and resolve the
part, do you search to the server to find the file, not the local drive.
