The project I'm working on includes two what I'll call Libraries of code developed by other teams. Using TFS, we would simply include their TFS folders in our workspaces and include their Visual Studio projects in our solution files. If the other team checked-in a file to the libraries we would immediately get their changes. Obviously y...
I have a few fairly involved work item queries saved in "My Queries" in TFS. I don't want to make them Team Queries because we have too many of those already and most of the team doesn't care about these particular queries.

Hi all, We're working simultaneously on SharePoint sites. We've to move them on a source control system. We've got both VSS and TFS. We'll prefer TFS over VSS because of its reliability.

When we're creating a new TFS project, we're looking to take areas from one or more existing projects and copy them to the new project. We'd also like to sync up the project areas (so if a user adds an area in one of the component projects, that gets propagated overnight to the release projects). I don't want to go through the TFS UI, ...
