Check in/Checkout is not version control in itself. It just prevents others from accessing the file while you have it checked out (source locking). It can be used with version control systems like Visual Source Safe and (via a plug-in that you can purchase from a third party) Subversion. Without the plug-in, you just have to manually update and commit with subversion. Minor irritant, but it does extend development time a bit. Having used both, I like them both, while subversion has the advantage of being free. If you are on windows, TortioseSVN is an excellent tool that plugs into Windows Explorer in the dropdown menu to navigate repositories and commit and update files.
