How to load a project (in the component stream) from the work item?

Hi all,
Suppose then that I don't have the project loaded from the component stream yet (this can be done by opening the Workspace --> Component --> Show Repository Files and then I load the project that I want). Is a way then to load the appropriate project from the work item? (change sets apply if the project is already loaded (checked out) and there is a change to accept. But me, I want to load (check out) the project from the work item.

You cannot do that. You would need to find a workspace which contained this change and load that.
A workflow I would recommend is (using 4.0)
- for the work item, run locate change sets : this will populate a dialog
- search all streams in the project area
- create a workspace off one of the streams which contains the change set.
Hope this helps,
