We've got an odd issue where we need to find out when a file was checked out by a consultant. Is there any way to do this in TFS or VS2008?
Right-click on the highest level that you want to search for checked out files (like the root of the project collection) and click the Find menu –> Find by Status. Recursive, and click Status. Click Find. This will give you a list of all the files that are checked out.
Right-Click If you have the Source Control Explorer or File List open, right-click the file you want to view and select Source Control > View History. Local Toolbar In the File List, select the file(s) you want to view. In the local toolbar of the File List, click , then select View History .
Right-click your project or project suite in the Project Explorer and then click Source Control > Check Out for Edit. Click Check Out for Edit on the Source Control toolbar (if the toolbar is hidden, right-click the toolbar area and select Source Control). Start editing the needed project item.
Simply go to View > Team Explorer then browse to the collection/project you are working on and double click on "Source Control" to open the source control explorer. This then will show you the directory listing system where you can see who has checked out which file and what kind of check out.
