Open RELOAD and Set Up Workspace
Launch RELOAD editor (either from the start menu or desktop shortcut). By default, the Editor opens up with no files open. we want to create a new Content Package, so:
- Click File, New, > IMS 1.1.3 Content Package. A dialog box appears and you are asked to select a folder for the content package. Navigate to c:\cp\testpkg, select this and click Open.

A new window appears with the title Content Package - testpkg and three frames, one showing the tree structure of files and folders (tree view), a second showing the main content package (the manifest view) and a third showing information (attributes view) about individual elements.

On creating the content package, the RELOAD Editor automatically creates four files:
- imsmanifest.xml - the Manifest for this Content Package, where all the information will be stored. The name imsmanifest.xml is mandatory, and this file must appear in the root of any valid content package.
- imscp_v1p1.xsd - a local copy of the the content packaging XML Schema Document (referenced by the manifest).
- imsmd_v1p1.xsd - a local copy of the the metadata XML Schema Document (referenced by the manifest).
- ims_xml.xsd - a local copy of the XML Schema Document (referenced by the manifest).
