Setting the path in autoexec.nt ought to do it. You can
also set custom MS DOS initialization files (like
autoexec.bat and and config.sys) that will load for Xywrite
only; in the properties dialog, click Program and then
Advanced. These files can have any name and be kept in any
location. Here's what mine look like:

REM XY4_W2K.BAT startup file for XyWrite 4
REM TJH 16-Feb-2001
REM Replaces autoexec.nt under Win 2000

REM Install CD-ROM extensions
lh %SystemRoot%\system32\mscdexnt.exe

REM Install network redirector
lh %SystemRoot%\system32\redir

REM XyWrite 4 does _not_ use DPMI, so support not needed
REM lh %SystemRoot%\system32\dosx

REM Set path for dictionary, etc. to XY4 program directory
path=D:\XY4

REM Start Laptop UltraVision
d:\uv\uv


REM XY4_W2K.SYS config file for XyWrite 4
REM TJH 19-Jan-2001
REM Replaces config.nt under Win 2000

dos=high, umb
device=%SystemRoot%\system32\himem.sys
device=d:\uv\ansi-uv.sys
files=40
