Thanks. I used xcopy to create an empty tree structure but, since there were no files, CVS didn't import anything! I don't want to import my actual development tree because there are lots of files that should not be placed in source control. It appears CVS wants me to go through a time-consuming file copying operation.

You may want to find a doc that corresponds to your version though: http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.7/cvs_3.html#SEC38 When you do a cvs import of a project, all files at the same level and below in the directory tree will be imported. If there are files in there you would like to check-in later, remove/move them somewhere else before doing the import. Also, beware of binary files if you have any. You may want to 'cvs add' them later as they require special options. Not sure if cvs import determines that prior to importing and acts accordingly.
