Adding a solution to the product library

You can develop your own solutions, or install one or more of the ESRI mapping and charting solutions, and add them to the product library. This provides you with a way to easily find the product you are working with in the product library tree view on the Product Library window. For example, if you install Nautical Solution, you could add Nautical Solution to your product library.
