Ask these persons if they did a cvs update on their sandbox before starting the commit. Typically CVS is rather terse in its messages when procedure has not been followed. I have seen this also when I have a binary file that needs to be committed but the local revision is not HEAD on the server (someone else has committed his own changes before me). In this case the response is this very non-informative message. I think that if the same happens with a normal text file then CVS will tell you that you need to update first. But update of the sandbox in this case will replace your edited xls file with the one from the server and you will have to get your version back by renaming the file that cvs moves it into (something starting with a #). And of course this destroys whatever changes the other person has done... A side effect of the fact that binary files cannot be concurrently edited and version controlled. /Bo On Tue, 24 Jun 2003 15:46:25 -0700, "Drew F.
