Whats the problem?

If your partner makes a change it SHOULD ask you if you want to load those changes.

Personally, I use source safe with my team and checkout files as needed from the safe. So he would only checkout the files he needs for his module and you would check out yours.. and when your done you checkin the files to the safe.

Yes, you have to debug because the other person is not working on a local copy of the code. If you set up a source code repository (with Visual Source Safe or some other source control system) you can each work independantly on your own machines and not interfere with each other. The source control system will make sure that you don't each work on the same code at the same time. Once one of you has finish and checked in your work, the other can get the latest version of all the files for a up to date copy of the code. This is how you work in a team environment.

There are various source control providers, some will cost you (Visual Source Safe, Sourcegear Vault), and some are free/open source (CVS). Most likely, the free ones won't integrate with a development environment the way the others can. You'll have to investigate what you can get and use.

If he has the VS.NET I belive it comes with Source Safe.... So I think he's all set :)
