    Hello Arunshete,

    Will you be using the modules from a Learining Management Server (LMS) or your webserver?

    If you want to upload it on your webserver then you can do it using Adobe Captivate, But if you want to upload it on your LMS then you need Multi Sco Packager ( It is avilable only with E learning Suite and from Captivate 7 onwards it is avalable with Captivate itself )

    Thanks and Regards

    Hello Arunshete,

    I will explain you by taking an example of 4 projects ( A, B, C, D).

    As Per your requirement you want to link the project with each other as well as with the home Page

    You need to first publish your last project which is D. Now Insert a button on the last slide of Project C.

    Now apply action on that button to Open Url or File and link the output( .htm file ) of Project D.

    Now publish it to the same folder where you have published project D .

    Now do the same with Project B and then A.

    But make sure that you publish all of them in the same folder as D.

    Now create a new project with a blank slide having 4 buttons ( A, B, C, D) on it .

    Then on Button A apply the action as open url or File and locate to the output file (.htm) File of Project A.

    Now you can do the same thing with rest of the three projects as well . After doing this make sure you publish this new project to the same folder where you have placed the previous projetcs output.

    Note : This workflow will be only useful if you are publish the output in .SWF Format, This is not applicable for HTML5 Output

    Hope This Helps

    Thanks and Regards
