Use RAD "code completion" without checking out the file

We are using RAD as our IDE. Our
Java developers would like to have the code completion option working with out checking out the file which is held in ClearCase under source control.
Today, when we use this "Code Completion option, even though we do not make any changes to the file contect it is being checked out, and we end up with so many checkedout files that we need to undo their checkout.

    Are you using the clearcase eclipse plugins (SCM Adapters, ClearCase Remote Client) or the Windows client. This may be better opened against the ClearCase product as they are the ones who provide the integration with eclipse.
