We do this using the 'Advanced' button on the checkin dialog now (with Merant, nee PVCS) but the 'Advanced' button is disabled when I set TFS as my SCC provider. Is there a switch we can flip on either side to enable this?

Or do we need to write some custom extension?
Or can I get the TFS changeset number to associate with the change in PB? Or am I coming at doing selective builds entirely the wrong way?

A: 

We can achieve what we want by creating a Note field in TFS and making it required on check in. The SCC interface will make the TFS check-in dialog appear & force the developer to enter a value in the field. We can then use the Note to find the associated changeset & do extracts based on the changeset. Thanks to all who looked at this.

thanks for posting the answer, this is (academically) interesting. We're using PowerBuilder with PVCS 6.8 at present and may be moving
