URGENT: Possible Bug with VSS action?

[rob_manger]

Hi All,

I may just not be doing things correctly, or maybe it is by design, but I think I've found a defect with the VSS Checkout Action.

What I am trying to do is the equivalent of the VSS "Check-out -> Do not get local copy" which basically doesn't over-write local files that have been updated while checked in.

I have tried having the "Handling of writeable local files" set to "Skip" and "Merge", but the file is skipped and the step still fails, "A writeable copy exists".

I can't even do the equivalent of "Check-In -> Keep Checked Out" so doing it this way won't work.

Am I missing something? Any help with my problem would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
