Is there a way to use VS SourceSafe or something similar to setup the ability for 2 programmers to work on the same project, but where one has to check in/check out remotely - i.e. say the server holding the source code is based in Paris with programmer A, and programmer B has to get check out the code, but he is based in Japan - can he check out/check in that code in some way. Would be so cool if I could do this.

Sorry - it's what we call our developer network.I've been happy with
Subversion & Trac with 2gb storage for $15 per month.
It uses SSL for it's transfers, so no eavesdropping is possible. You control the accounts & their permissions.
If you want integration with Visual Studio, there are several add-ins that connect to Subversion. Or you can use TortoiseSVN which is a Windows Shell extenson (I use this one).

You can install Subversion (it's free) on your own server, if you have a static IP address so that your partner can access it.

We use source safe in house whilst our developers in Poland use source safe off site.
This works for us but there are some problems to be aware of such as it can be very slow.
I've never tried any other source control product so have nothing to compare with but would say that source safe has a few really annoying features that would make me consider using a different product if I was starting from scratch. Although some of them may be more to do with the Visual Studio integration than source safe itself.
