Edited a bunch of help files and added many new ones so the cc manual no contains everything that my Training Guide contains. Next step is to edit the files for readability and consistancy in format.

\label{Docs_Adding_Course_Doc}
To add course content, log in to the course you want to add content to. Select \textbf{DOCS} on the Remote Control or Main Menu to display the \textbf{Course
Documents} screen.

There are four ways you can add a new document to the course:

\begin{itemize}

\item Import a document from the LON-CAPA network (\ref{Docs_Importing_LON-CAPA_Resource})
\item Create a document from a prepared template (\ref{Docs_Creating_From_Template})
\item Add an external resource (\ref{Docs_Adding_External_Resource})
\item Upload a document from your hard drive such as a PowerPoint presentation or a
PDF file (\ref{Docs_Uploading_From_Harddrive})

\end{itemize}

You can also organize documents into folders for structure,
(\ref{Docs_Adding_Folders}) or add a \textbf{Navigate Contents} page,
which creates a resource in the course that displays the \textbf{Navigate
Course Contents} screen. This could make a good first page for a course. 

The resources are listed in the order they will be viewed. The first resource 
listed is the starting page a user will see when they access the course. To 
change the order of the resources, click on the blue up or down arrows next to 
the resource you wish to move. Repeat this until you have all the resources in the 
order you want. You can also click the \underbar{Remove} or \underbar{Rename} links to delete or rename resources. Changes made to Main Course Documents, such as 
changing the order, adding new resources, and renaming or removing resources will 
be visible the next time you log in, or by clicking the 
\fbox{re-initializing course} button 
on the \textbf{Course Documents} screen, whichever comes first.
