Jacob,

I have not found that any of these options actually LOCK the file
automatically when checked out. They do dictate what happens IF a file
is locked or after the file is unlocked. Maybe I have misunderstood the
auto-version section numerous times.

I believe Yong was looking for a "lock this file automatically when it
is checked out" option.
