TFS: no longer auto-checking out files I change from within VS2008?

Has this happened to anyone? Nothing has changed on my system, yet TFS no longer will auto-checkout files for me when I edit them. If it has, what did you do to fix it?

Under Tools -> Options -> Source Control -> Environment, both Saving and Editing are set to "Check out automatically", so I'm pretty confused at this point.

Not sure about your specific TFS or Visual Studio version, however in VS2010 you have:

File > Source Control > Change Source Control

enter image description here

If your Solution/Project is listed like above with no Server Name, Binding etc., select it and click Bind. That may get things going again

I did end up having to "go online" for my solution. What a pain.

if you restart VS does it fix it? I get it sometimes too, but it's just fouled up VS
