If using wincvs, the matching option is found during checkout. On the checkout settings dialog, there is the Globals tab which contains the option "Checkout text files with the Unix LF". Using that option got rid of my extra linefeeds.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Does anyone else check out the source and see newlines separating everyline in Visual Studio?
That will happen because I check in using TortoiseCVS and use windows line endings instead of unix line endings.
If you check out using Cygwin you will probably get this situation occurring, although I think theres a CVS option to work around it.

If you're using TortoiseCVS you should edit the file TortoiseCVS.Filetypes and add the line:
*.vb unicode
This should solve the problems.
If not there is a good explanation inthe CVS manual.

Sorry.
This just works if you add files to the repsitory.
In TortoiseCVS, when you perform the checkout , in the options tab, check the "use UNIX line endings" checkbox.
This works.
