When to Check-out/check-in files in Visual Source Safe

I am looking for some suggestions from the group on Source Safe.

1. What is the best practice/rule for the Source Safe to check-out and
check-in files for a small group of developers?

2. What is the best practice/rule for the Source Safe to check-out and
check-in files for a large group of developers?

Don't check out more files than you need.

2. What is the best practice/rule for the Source Safe to check-out and
check-in files for a large group of developers?
You may want to look at using a CSV style system (i.e. SourceGear Vault)
for a larger development team - that allows for concurrent developing on a
single file.

Try :
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/vss

1.You have just to check out those files you are working on. Check them in
once the change you are working on "works". The file is then updated on the
shared location and you have then there something that compiles and "works"
(even if the change is not yet totally final ie some changes in a multi
changes update but this is up to you to define).

2. I would say the same ?

If you tell us what is the problem you are anticipating one could perhaps
provide better guidance...

When deciding to use a structure or a class, what is the general "rule of thumb"? When you're creating your data model, what factors dictate that you use a class instead of a structure? Structures are more lightweight than classes but for example if you're only going to create a single instance (for whatever reason), it seems that the added "weight" of a class would be negligible. If creating many such instances, it might be...
