XControl Properties and Perforce

Question

I seem to repeatedly have problems checking in XControl read and write properties to my Perforce repositary.
The Property folder tells me it can't be added because it hasn't been saved and the Read and Write VIs don't give me the opition to add to source control on the right-click menu.....
   Can't add the Property folder
  Can't add the individual files..
Is this a bug or am I doing things wrong?
This is making working at home andin the office a real pain as VIs are getting "lost"

Hello Shane,
from my point of view the message is quite clear, you will find some informations about your next steps in the dialogbox. You have to save the file you want to add to Perforce. But am I right, that this is one of the first things you have done?
I found some other informations which could help you out with this. First of all, only for assurence the general "How to do":

Another very interesting thing it
is discussed in a Perforce Bug Release Document (see link below).
From the Perforce Release Notes:
Issue Number: 103269
Clients with upper case letters drive letters in the root no longer fail to connect to the server. (Bug #21582)
Resolution:
In the Client Specifications Root Path setting in Perforce, change the drive letter from a capital case to a lower case (Example: change "C:\" to "c:\"). 
Restart LabVIEW and reopen the project. 
The "Check In" and "Check Out" items will no longer be grayed out and you should no longer receive the error messages.
