Team Foundation Server Questions

[MMock]

First of all, this is low priority so if you don't know or don't care, that's okay.

I've been given two assignments which are very vague. I am joining an existing team, but I am not sure how much code has been written. But I looked in Source Control, and there is code so I wanted to get the project and poke around.

Our convention is that we always map projects in source control to c:\devprojects. But when I did a Get Latest Version of this particular project, it wanted to get the project to c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\etc. So I started to make a folder structure that matched that, but it kept saying it couldn't get the .sln file because if an access issue. Since I wasn't even sure I wanted it in \Program Files, I scratched that and tried to map it to c:\devprojects but it gives me this error: The local folder could not be set to c:\Devprojects because it is already the local folder for another server folder. What does "another server folder" mean exactly?

I didn't think just getting an existing project could be so difficult.

Thanks.

I googled for

The local folder could not be set to c:\Devprojects because it is already the local folder for another server folder.

And top two links are MSDN How-to's - maybe they will help.

Intestingly enough - you are the third link - amazing how fast GOOGLE indexes new content!
