Remarks
The workflow runtime calls this overrride to check out the specified document from the document library.
This override checks out the item specified by the ListItem property from the list specified by the ListId property.
Visual Studio 2005 Designer for Windows Workflow Foundation does not support this workflow activity. This workflow activity is designed to be used in a declarative, code-free workflow, for example, in a workflow you might create by using a rules-based, code-free workflow editor such as Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007. As a result, the workflow activity might not include functionality, such as registering for workflow events, that might be used in compiled workflow assemblies that are created by using the Visual Studio 2005 Designer for Windows Workflow Foundation.
This override throws an InvalidOperationException exception if it cannot get an external item service to handle the request.
This override always returns Closed.
