You can load object into the project library and use it in the project normally without opening it. You can change the settings through the object interface settings as well.

Bobby, Architect

Who would your target client be, exactly? Hospitals/ Med Centers? Tough to imagine a small startup firm breaking in there. Or would you be consulting to larger HC-oriented firms you've already been working for? That seems a bit likelier. Better yet might be going after developers of med office buildings. 1 More Answer
