In WinCvs you select the folder in your sandbox where the new file is
located.
The files already under source control will appear in the file list
window.
The files not yet under source control will also be visible but with an
icon with a ? character
Select the one you want to add to the module
Click the Add button on the toolbar (there are 3 to choose from
depending on the type of file)
Now the file icon changes to a red "document" icon
Select the file again if it lost focus
Then click the commit button (the red up-left arrow)
In the dialogue that comes up enter a message on why you are adding the
file
Then click OK

This is all, the file is now added to the module and will be available
for all others to use.

The location will be the same as the other files in the folder you are
operation inside, all files in a working folder come from the same
repository folder, so this is natural.
