Don't let the terminology confuse you -- any time you specify a tag to

didn't realize it.
Looks like that was the case.
The problem here is that you checked out a particular revision rather
than a branch. You can only commit to a branch. From what you've said,
you probably want to update to the rev6_3 branch, then you'll be able to
commit your changes.
What I was afraid of losing changes by using cvs update. As part of
the commit, I had added a new folder that was not part of the version
control.
cd \local\wc5
cvs add wciocp
cd wciocp
cvsadd *.cpp *.h *.dsp *.rc # batch file to add file specs.
and some how I got into a situation where the wciocp were in the
"attic" because of the sticky tag. It threw me all off. But I
wasn't worry about this new folder than I was for existing folders
where the commit error occurred.
I have it resolved now.
Thanks for your input Larry.
