change login user for source control

[MechSoft]

Hi,

I've got this problem with source control when multiple users use the same
computer. Somehow the project I work on has someone else's login to
sourcesafe, which creates this subtle problem to me: whenever I edit the
file, and thus the file is checked out, but checked out by someone else not
by me. I want to change the login user to be me, how can I do this?

Thanks in advance!

AFAIK, if we are talking about Source Safe, you can't change the user who
checked out a file whitout checking in the file.
Maybe you could have better luck asking in a source safe's group.
