    want to disconnect a file from sourcesafe to work on it. (3 replies)
    microsoft.public.vsnet.vss
    How do I do that? The file is checked out exclusively by someone else. In some cases a dialog box appears asking if I want to work disconnected from SourceSafe. I am not sure how that mechanism works. I do see under VS.NET Tools/Options/Source Control/General a checkbox "Allow checked in items to be edited." Is that relevant to my wish to work in a disconnected context? Thanks, Greg
