Assign a Custom Program as a Resource

You can use a custom program to display resource text. Make sure the custom program is in either the same folder as the template or the Windows\System folder.

To use a custom program to display resource text

1. Open the variable or dialog to which you want to assign resources. (See Edit a Variable or Edit a Custom Dialog.)
2. Click the Resource tab.
3. Click the Resource type drop-down button and select Custom Program.
4. Click the Open button next to the Program file field and locate the file.
5. Type any necessary command-line options in the Command-line parameters field.

During the interview, HotDocs displays a link in the resource pane, which the user can click to open the custom program.
