Overview

Once your cases are saved to your firm's CiteRight database, you can access them in a number of ways. In this article, we will go over how to view the cases you've saved in both the web application and the Microsoft Word add-in.  

Viewing your cases in the web application

Option 1: View your Downloads. Any cases that you have not saved as part of a collection will appear here.

Option 2: View your Collections. If you've saved a case in a particular collection, it will no longer appear in your Downloads folder.

Option 3: View your Firm Library. Cases saved by other individuals within your firm will appear here.

If you've created a collection while logged into the CiteRight Word application and you don't see your collection in the list, click on the refresh button to the left of the search bar in the source selection screen. The same applies for the cases within a collection.

If you've downloaded a case while word was open, click on the refresh icon to the left of the search bar in the collection. 

 

To search for a specific text within a case

Simply click on the Search inside item bar, located bellow the Cite button.

Helpful tip! 

Selecting the Match whole word only option is best, as the search bar will catch everything you write.

When the Match case box is selected, the search will be case sensitive.

When the Highlight all matches box is selected, any text typed in the search bar will be highlighted throughout the document and will remain so until the search window is closed.

You can browse your searched item by either clicking Next and Previous or by scrolling through the case text.
