Problem getting Project into VS.NET 2003

Problem Opening an existing solution in VS.NET 2003 from source control.
The Root Validates OK
The Module it says is unknown - I have to click create to get OK..

If there is an issue it deletes files it doesn't recognise.. when I open
the project in WinCVS all the files are gone.. I have to get clean copy to
restore them.

Also the Blocker - once I get an error in checking a module the proxy hangs
and I have to close and start again.. for example I try to check for a
module that I know existed and it came back "unkown" so I put "/" in front
of module name and it locked up. I tried to check another ROOT to ensure
that the proxy was working and this was ok BUT when I checked the ROOT with
the code I wanted it said OK but locked up and would not continue.. I had
to close VS.NET and start again.

Another issue.. if there are submodules I have to "create" them all
manually to get them to extract the files.. this does not seem correct.

Do I have a wrong version or something?

This is a blocker because I have convinced my company to move from VSS to
CVS and buy 10 PushOK proxy licenses and now it is not working as
described. (I am still waiting for licences but this is not a problem (yet)
I think the problem is on my end.. purchasing officer in Sydney - Me in
Hobart)

Thanks in advance, Greg
