If I understand your example, you are checking out the files, not doing
an update to an already checked-out sandbox.  That is to say, you start
with no files in your project (empty directory) and you check-out the
complete project.  Since the VC++ IDE bases modification on the file
time-stamps, all of the files appear "new" to the IDE and it rebuilds everything.

Rather than checking out the files every time and deleting in-between, what you
should do is leave your sandbox in place and do an Update rather than a
checkout.

Hope I have understood your situation and that this makes sense.
