How To Change Library Path In OrCAD Capture 17.4

Hello,

I downloaded the symbol and footprint of a part from Ultra Librarian to a local folder. After I put the part in the schematic there is a warning as below.

WARNING(ORCAP-2434): Footprint 'CP_32_15' specified in PCB Footprint for instance 'U1' is missing. Ensure 'CP_32_15' is in the library path.

Does anyone know if there is a way to add my local folder to the library search path? I want to keep the default library folder clean and use project specific folder for symbols and footprints.

Thanks.

Bruce
