Once upon a time two developers started working on the same ASP.NET project.
Each developer works from a location different from the other and both are
using XP Pro, SQL Server 2000, and Visual Studio.NET Enterprise Edition.
Each developer uses FTP to deploy the results of their work to a Windows
Server 2003 IIS6 application server being hosted by a third party service
provider.

Neither developer has a clue how to best structure local file system and
development resources to avoid compilation and similar conflicts that they
learned can occur when the big bad wolf tells them that they have objects
with no references. The big bad wolf growls about compilers and all sorts of
stuff scaring the hell out of the developers making them pee their pants
because they have given the wolf and his pals all of their federal reserve
notes only to realize that they and are working with very expensive
development tools that were not designed to be used by developers that
needed to work together on the same project.

So, do you have any wolf repellant you can share with us?

This is a link to Microsoft's guide for team-based development on VS.Net.
Watch for wordwrap.

Thanks Tom, I've also found "How To Create an ASP.NET Application from
Multiple Projects for Team Development" [1].
Our choices are somewhat convoluted. I'm looking forward to more insight
after reading the resources you referred to.
