Thanks Dan,
 
I've spent some time reading the pdf and have managed to install tortoiseSVN on my computer.
 
I have a repository set up at c:\SVNRepository.
 
In "My Documents" I set up a test project folder called "aTestProject" and I've populated it with "trunk" "branches" and "tags" subdirectories as outlined in the manual. I think I've imported these directories (If I right-click on "aTestProject" directory and try to import it now it gives me an error message saying that the path to "trunk" already exists).
 
So now I've created a test file, document1.txt and saved it into "aTextProject\trunk\document1.txt" and I'm trying to add it to source control. The manual (section 5.10) says I should select the file, invoke the tortoiseSVN menu and select "Add", but I'm not getting an "Add" menu option. The options I'm getting are:
 
Repo-browser
Help
Settings
About
 
I've tried everything I can think of to add it to source control, including moving the file out then dragging and dropping it back ;into the aTextProject\trunk folder, but no dice. I'm sure I must have something set up wrong, but I don't know where to begin to look....any pointers would be very appreciated.
 
Thanks,
 
Jeff

Jeff,
        check out the manual for tortoiseSVN http://tortoisesvn.sourceforge.net/docs/nightly/TortoiseSVN_en.pdf
The manual has a good description of how to set up a repository served up through apache, read chapters 3 & 4.
BTW, tortoiseSVN is an excellent SVN tool.
