title: In Perforce, how can I check in a file previously checked out on another machine/workspace?
body: <p>I hope I'm not asking a question that's already been answered, but I can't seem to find one that fits my situation.  </p>
  
  <p><strong>Scenario</strong>:  Using P4V gui (2011 version), with no access to P4 command line, on Windows 7.</p>
  
  <p><strong>The setup</strong>:  A user creates a workspace in Perforce from Machine A, pointing that workspace to a shared network drive, and checks out a file for editing.  </p>
  
  <p>Machine A then dies before the user can check in the file.  The user is then assigned Machine B, for which he must create a new workspace (which is also pointed at the same shared network drive).  </p>
  
  <p><strong>The problem</strong>:  The problem we're having is that even though the workspace from the dead Machine A and from the new Machine B both point to the same location, Perforce considers them to be different workspaces and prevents the user from checking in/submitting the previously checked out file.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions on how to check in this stranded file would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much!</p>
