There's also a VSS plugin called jalina igloo which works beautifully in 
CFStudio and should be the same in homesite, allowing you right click and 
toolbar control of your cvs commands while in the IDE (including things like 
checking out a file when you open it etc).

And for those who don't like / have trouble with winCVS try lincvs - 
www.lincvs.org.  Get version 1.6 which has a windows executable - it's tidier 
than wincvs and more stable, has a few nice features to it too.
