OT: How to assign a texture using 3dsmax

[Ragnarok-X]

Hey everyone,
pretty OT, but i cant help myself. I have been doing a few models using 3dsmax 5. I now want to skin them/assign a texture. Unfortunally i dont how to do that, i now you must somehow assign a UV map to the model which again must be exported and colored. How to i assign a UV map ?

Do you know of any texturing/skinning tutorials ?
