sounds familiar, where do you work? hehe! Yeah, after using CVS on my own ( well I cajoled maybe 2 others after a bit) within a team of non-cvs users for the past two years I finanlly just said everyone has to use it. Being the production owner gave me some leverage. "Use CVS or your code does not go to production" I said. :) I set them up with TortoiseCVS. It is uber simple to use. Only thing that wil lbe difficult is branching/merging...another day for that.
