I am using Vault 3.0.2. Sometimes - rarely - when I check out a file Vault decides for some odd reason that I must check out every file in my Solution. This can be particularly annoying since my Project has hundreds of files! I literally have to click Cancel on the Check Out dialog box a hundred or so times. (I've tried killing VS.NET through Task Manager then returning, but the same problem happens with a specific file.)
Has anyone experienced this before or know why I'm experiencing this?
Any help greatly appreciated, thanks.
(This has happened to me over the past year maybe two or three times in total... all times on an ASP.NET project, if that's of any help. This time the particular file that's being a pain is a Crystal Report (.rpt) file.)
Why does Vault want to check out ALL of my Project's files?

The error here could be one of:
1. Accidently having the project folder selected when doing the checkout.
2. Visual Studio sending us a list of all files in the project to checkout instead of just the one file.
3. Vault checking out every file even though VS told us to only checkout a single file.
To verify 2 or 3, you could set up IDE logging, which would tell us what VS is sending us to checkout. See http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=2898 for how to set it up, and if you see the problem again, check the exact date and time you saw it and send us those portions of the log file.
Note that the log file will grow very large if you never delete it, so you may want to remember to clear it out every day or so until you reproduce it.
