Files are not writeable

Post by johnsonsite » Fri Apr 29, 2011 11:26 am

Word docs remain in read-only after checking out, instead of being writeable. Other files become writeable like they should when checked out.

Vault Client Version: 5.0.4.18845
.Net Framework Version: 2.0.50727.3620

What is the operating system of the machine you are using?

Are you checking the file out through the Vault GUI client or through Visual Studio or some other IDE?

XP SP3, and using the Vault GUI client. I was away from this issue for a few days, now it's plaguing me again/still.

What are the exact steps you take when going from checking out to editing to saving?

When you check out the files, do any errors show up in the messages pane?

Do you perform a separate Get after checking out?

What settings do you have set under Vault Tools - Options - Concurrent Development Style?
