VB6 changing status to 'Renegade'

I recently added a VB6 project to a new repository. Under the root folder, I added the files to a folder which had been set up as 'Inherited'. Every time I open the project in VB6, then go back into the Vault client, the working folder is no longer 'Inherited', and all of the files now have a status of 'Renegade'. If I remove the working folder so that it again becomes Inherited, the 'Renegade' status is cleared.

I'm wondering if I added the project to the repository correctly, and initially opened the VB6 project correctly.

Do you know why this is happening, and is there a document anywhere that specifies how to initially add a VB6 project to Vault for the first time, and then open it correctly from the IDE?

We do have a knowledge base article on adding projects to source control at http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=776. It is geared towards Visual Studio .Net 2003, but the same concepts should apply to VB6, although they the commands might be in different locations.

Also, there is an article that covers file status at: http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=131

Is the working folder actually changing locations on disk, or is the only difference that it goes from being inherited to being explicitly set?
