.NET MFC new class wizard problem

Here's my senerio -- I create a dialog resource -- Then I do an 'Add Class'
specifying an MFC class with a CDialog base class. Now the Wizard goes into
a loop asking me to check out lots of my project files (maybe 50 files). And
it won't let me quit this until it iterates thru this set of unrelated
files. In some cases I can cancel an individual 'check out for edit'
request, but sometimes I'm forced to actually check the file out before it
loops on to the next one. And I can't stop the loop in any way once it
starts.

Needless to say, this is frusterating -- takes about 20 minutes to create
the appropriate .h and .cpp for the new class.

How can I disable this checkout loop????

Using VS 2003.

TIA,

I also experience this problem when using the class browser to create new
COM properties and methods. It seems the IDE wants to check out all the
files in the project even though you are not changing them.

It's a real pain. The only workaround I have found is to manually check out
the whole project first, to avoid the popup messages.
 
So why aren't tons of people reporting this??? I'm hoping that there is a
simple configuration selection somewhere that will stop this.
