To create a slide library

  1. Use a Windows ASCII text editor to create a list of slide files to include in the library. The file would look similar to this example:

    entrance.sld

    hall.sld

    stairs.sld

    study.sld

    balcony.sld

  2. Name and save the file as a text file with a .txt file extension.
  3. Click Start menu (Windows) All Programs (or Programs) Accessories Command Prompt.
  4. In the Command Prompt window, at the prompt, enter CD <folder location of slides> to change folders.

    As an example: CD “c:\slides”

  5. At the prompt, enter the following syntax to create the slide library:

    slidelib libraryname < list.txt

    For example, if you named your text file areas.txt, you could create a library called house.slb by entering slidelib house < areas.txt. The SLIDELIB utility appends the file extension .slb to the slide library file.
