Add File to vMedia Macro to Default Collection-Master Template

04/04/2018 - Fixed typo: Changed any reference to WPCLS##US to be WPCLS##.
 

These instructions assume you have vMedia installed. The instructions also assume that Collection-Master is installed in the F:\CLSINC directory and that the WORD folder is a subfolder of F:\CLSINC. Verify that these are the correct directory on your system, and, if necessary, make the appropriate changes to these instructions if Collection-Master was installed elsewhere (e.g. F:\ROOT or F:\APPS\CLSINC).

NOTE: vMedia and Collection-Master are separate products. If you would like to acquire Collection-Master, please contact Vertican.
