Application.OpenLibrary Method

This method opens a HotDocs library (.HDL) file. If another library is already open, OpenLibrary closes the other library and opens the library specified in the libPath parameter.

Syntax

void OpenLibrary ( string libPath, bool addToMRU )

Parameters Description
libPath The file system path to the library.
addToMRU [optional] If this parameter has a value of True, the opened library is added to the list or most recently used libraries. (The default value is True.)

Example

The following Visual C# example opens a HotDocs Library file without adding it to the most recently used library list:

public class ExampleCode
{
    static void Main()
    {
        HotDocs.Application app = new HotDocs.Application();
        app.Visible = true;
         
        app.OpenLibrary(@"C:\Documents\HotDocs\Libraries\Probate.hdl", false);
    }
}
