Remotely & Programmatically check document in and out

Question

Here's the situation:

We have a number of Excel based tools that are checked into a SharePoint document library. I want a program that will allow me to check out one to many tools, perform maintenance on each one (executing macros inside the tool, etc), then check the tool(s) back in. I need assistance with programmatically checking in and out of the remote SharePoint server.

Requirements: CLIENT side execution to remote server VS2010/C#

Any and all help would be most appreciated.

Regards, John E.

If you are using SP 2010, then the client object model would be best. Here's a link to a similar question on another forum: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepoint2010programming/thread/841ddb4b-1c8f-4d2b-b154-437ab4a7e2dc/
