OyezForms Installation Instructions

Click here to download the OyezForms installer.

Standalone (with option to centralise library for multiple users):

  1. Click 'Download' for standalone installer
  2. Run oyezforms.msi on first client machine
  3. Click Next

  7. Click Install

To share the library:

The library folder contains all library resources. Where more than one user of OyezForms exists, it can be desirable to centralise the form library. This allows a single user to update the library for all via Active Library. You can set the library path within OyezForms at any time via the OPTIONS > DATABASES tab.
Please ensure end users have sufficient access rights (Full Control) to the shared folder.

To share user files or completed forms:

You can also centralise user files (Clause library, shortlist, spellchecker files, and personal library) and stored completed forms. You can set these paths within Oyez at any time via the OPTIONS > GENERAL tab.
Please ensure end users have sufficient access rights (Full Control) to the shared folder.

Default path to user files: C:\Users\%username%\Documents\My Oyez Documents\
Default path to stored completed forms C:\Users\%username%\Documents\My Oyez Documents\

You should also amend the Library and Master locations. These can be found at Admin > Options > Databases. You should amend these to reflect where your network share resides.

This installation type is considered legacy and should only be used if you have inherited this type of setup. Please contact support for assistance with moving to Standalone (with option to centralise library for multiple users).
