When I'm working on a VS.NET solution which has been added into VSS, I need
to checkout the solution & project.
Hence, no one else is able to check these files out and work on this
project.

I.e. when i'm working on a project in VS.NET, another person cannot do the
same.

Is there something wrong in what i'm doing?

You're using the wrong Source Code Control software :-)
Take a look here: it's free, opensource, easy to use and to isntall, and it
works (!) and doesn't annoy or block the developers, and it is replacing the
defacto standard CVS: http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/

But I have to use VSS.
Isn't there a way around this problem?

Can you not just check out the modules that you need and not the whole
project.

No. You only need to check out the file you want to work on. Checking out a
project is only needed if you want to add or remove a file or a reference
from a project. Once that's done, you can check the project back in. The
same goes for the solution.

Each developper should only check out the file they need to modify and
nothing else.
