Open a Library

Often you have templates that are located in different libraries. You can access any library by using the Open command at the library you are currently viewing.

To open a different HotDocs library

1. Start HotDocs. (See Start HotDocs.)
2. At the library window, click the Open Library button. The Open Library dialog box appears.
3. Locate and select the library (.HDL) file with which you want to work, then click Open. The folders, templates, and clause libraries in the new library appear in the template list.

After opening the library, you can edit the templates, or use them to assemble documents.

See Change HotDocs Program File Locations for information on the default location HotDocs looks for and saves library files.
