It was a long time ago now, but the company I worked for converted
from CVS to VSS and there were certain files which were corrupted
every time you checked them in. Same corruption every time, same
files. No-one at Microsoft seemed to be too concerned, nor did any
of the people responsible for the change choose to act like it
mattered. I no longer remember how it was resolved; I think I may
have left the company while it was still going on.

Each time I read Eric's posts about this guy I wonder "where is his
manager?". Unless he is single-handedly responsible for some big
chunk of the company's bottom line, he should not be allowed to
behave like this. Have you made sure that his boss, and yours, are
aware of his obstructionist ways?
