I don't know what happened, but my VS.NET project seems to have lost track
of its VSS database after working remotely. There is no longer a check-in
option for projects I previously checked-out. I tried doing a check-out for
all the projects at the solution level, which worked and shows them all
"checked out to me". However, still no "check in option". I have a VPN
connection and tried "changing source control" to the central VSS
database... but STILL no check-in option.

What's going on? How do I get my projects to resynch?

Hi,

It is possible that you're still working offline/disconnected with the
projects.
The checkin command is available only when working online/connected

Open the solution in VS.NET, open the File/SourceControl/ChangeSourceControl
dialog, and look at the checkboxes in the Connected column.
If they are not checked, select all the project lines and press Connect
button, then press Ok.
(make sure you have access to the database when doing this)
When you get back online with the projects VS.NET will prompt you to
checkout for real the files, and after that you'll be able to check them in.
