1. A computer-implemented method for enabling a host application to retrieve images of documents stored in a document management system through an enabler application that is used for creating an association between a field on an interface of the host application and a field of the document management system, the method comprising the steps of: executing the enabler application and the host application; displaying an interface of the host application while the host application is executing during run-time, wherein the interface of the host application contains one or more fields; and after the interface is displayed, creating an association using the enabler application between a field on the interface of the host application and a field of the document management system used for retrieving document images from the document management system; wherein data provided for the field on the interface of the host application during the execution of the host application is used to retrieve a document image from the document management system based upon the created association; wherein the document management system facilitates electronic capturing of documents for storing and managing the documents; wherein the steps of the methods are executed on one or more data processors.
