Michael,

Thanks for the quick response.

Don't have any conflict.  In fact, the file is treated as if it is brand new
in my workspace (i.e. I have to add it to version control).  In other words,
the file in the repository and my local workspace appear to be completely
unrelated to each other even though they are in the same folder and have the
same name.  Is this a side effect of being on a backlevel Eclipse 2.0 driver?

In other words, the whole team has to go through this exercise?  Fech!

You know what could really help is if I could choose a file in the CVS
repository view and choose Check out on it (or drag/drop it into my project)
and have Eclipse automatically understand that I simply want to synchronize my
workspace (essentially do Override and Update on something that I don't have
in the workspace exactly the right way for that operation to work right).
Should I submit a feature request?
