Add to Source Control fails

From Visual Studio, I tried to add a solution to Vault. However, I got a warning that Visual Studio is reporting the working folder is C:\ and the action failed.

The solution contains 2 projects. One project is a Web Service with the source found in C:\Websites\LienWS and the other project is a Windows application (basically just a win form that is used to test the web service) with it's source located in C:\DotNetProjects\LineWS_Test.

So instead of adding the solution to Vault, I added each project individually. This worked fine, but when another developer tried to open the project from source control using Visual Studio, he gets an error stating that there are no solution or project files available.

How should we handle web projects? Is there a difference between web projects and windows applications as far as source control goes?

Here's a KB article that pertains to why the working folder is reported as C:\: http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=552

Web projects are dealt with a little differently. Are you using VS 2005? If so, here are instructions for web projects: http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=5548.
