This is probably the canonically worst place to start. We have a complex build environment and an byzantine Ant builder.



I can use the Import option in Eclipse to
import from these pre-existing projects. However, it starts to
immediately build them,

Problem number one. You really do need to have everything configured _before_ you import them. In the meantime, uncheck Build Automatically under the project menu. I can hear Mike moaning already. :-) The Ant build is slooooow compared to the incremental and having it kick off all the time will quickly make you suicidal.



having trouble the ant function and certain
lacking other frameworks. That's perhaps all fine and good.

There should have been a README.html when you unpacked the source. You need to read this and follow every little step.




What gets
me is that every project (with an x on it now) has a pull down bar.
Clicking on the project in the package explorer "loses" the expansion
arrow and its empty.

That is because it caused Eclipse to throw an exception internally during the import and the import never completed. My advice: just import GVCFoundation to start with. Get it building correctly with no error. Only then import the others.



Would someone who groks eclipse care to tell me whats going on with
this poor UI, and why I can't access any files that were just imported
and processed. It saw them, and now its telling me its all off limits,
so how can I fix anything?

They were not fully imported as the projects are referencing something that you have not setup in Eclipse or your login environment.
