Joel,

So strongly persuade your developers to do the right thing... *s*

We have several developers working in the same projects around here and don't have real problems with this. We allow multicheckout of the PJM.

Another alternative might be to write your own code to read the PJM (it's just a text file) and automate the project object to handle the changes.

>I'm referring to conflicts between the local PJM file and the SourceSafe version. When there are conflicts, the developer is presented with a merge form to address each conflict. Unfortunately, the time is usually not taken to perform this process properly, which causes problems with the project. We would like to eliminate the merge issue by disabling multiple checkouts, but we are having problems getting it to the work.
