We have wrtitten an ASP.NET MVC application which has been checked into TFS 2010 by one developer. &nbsp;We are now wanting other developers to starting working on the same code hence the TFS integration. &nbsp;Now when other people are attempting to open the solutions file after downloading the latest source files, we are being prompted in VS 2010 the following message<br />

Microsoft Visual Studio<br />

The command you are attempting cannot be completed because the file 'Drought.Web.csproj' that must be modified cannot be changed. If the file is under source control, you may want to check it out; if the file is read-only on disk, you may want to change its attributes.<br />

Opening a ASP.NET Solution file errors with TFS integration

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications

ASP.NET

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft’s first server-side engine for dynamic web pages. ASP’s support of the Component Object Model (COM) enables it to access and use compiled libraries such as DLLs. It has been superseded by ASP.NET, but will be supported by Internet Information Services (IIS) through at least 2022.

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.
