This is exactly the case. I actually had a directory that needs to be
committed, but a branch needed to be created first. I realize now that
I could probably have just created the branch using the revision
number just before I committed that directory.

However, I successfully removed the directory and committed the
removal which removed the directory and it's files from the repository
and my local working copy.

I then wanted to retrieve the directory and files from the repository
so that I could have them in my local working copy, so I could
recommit them at a later date, after the branch had been cut.

Mark, I tried to do the show history on the directory and then get the
contents, but I was not able to. I'm guessing that this feature only
works on files themselves.

Can you help me with this a little. I think this will be the best way
for me. I've right clicked on the directory and chosen "merge". When I
take the revision just before the removal (to), and the head (from). I
get my files back, but their file names are surrounded by the '#'
symbol now. I don't think I did this right, what did I do wrong?

Thanks,
Eric
