Behavior when checking out projects using SOS w/ VS.NET

[Guest]

We are using SOS integrated w/ M'soft's VS.net IDE.
We're using the VS.net IDE to check out files at the project level. We right click the project and choose check out, all is fine UNLESS
the project is already checked out by someone else. If the project's file are already checked out, we then recieve a dialog box with an error - Unable to lock file $/ (the file path is listed here); there is only an Ok button to click, nothing else. Please see attached.

VS.NET / SOS will then loop through each file in the project's directory and present the same dialog box - which we have to click Ok to close . It will do this for every file in the directory (we will have to click Ok to close the dialog box - for every file in the directory). Is there a way to avoid this behavoir, we expected to be notified that the project is checked out already by somone else one time and not have to click Ok multiple times.

We are running:
Client - Win XP Pro SP1
SOS 4.1
VS.net 1.1
Server - Win 2000 SP4

The problem is, within VS.NET, even though you are performing the operation on the project, VS.NET passes that to SOS as a series of file check outs. So each file is handled in its own operation. However, we should able to add a "do not show this dialog again" checkbox which would solve the proble for you. I'll make a note of it in our issues database.
