Integration with LexisNexis online content allows you to easily perform context-specific searches for people, organizations, issues, and case law.
Research menus are available on the following spreadsheets:
| • | Research - Authorities and Extracts |
Research menus are accessible in two places for the same record:
| • | Full Name field by clicking the drop-down menu  |
| • | Standard toolbar by clicking on the Research button  |
The same menu is accessed from both locations. Research menus differ depending on which type of case record you are working on. For example, the Research menu options for the Authorities spreadsheet are different than those for the Organizations spreadsheet.
| 1. | In the Case Shortcuts pane, click the icon for the spreadsheet you want to use. |
You must open the All Objects, Persons, Organizations, Issues, Research - Authorities, or Research - Authorities or Extracts spreadsheet to use this feature.
| 2. | Click the Research button on the Standard toolbar to select from a list of research options. |
| • | All Objects — Research Expert button |
| • | Persons — Research Judge button |
| • | Organizations — Research Organization button |
| 3. | On each of these menus, select the research item you want to perform. |
| 4. | In the message box, click OK. |
| 5. | Logon to your LexisNexis account for the program you are accessing. |
| 6. | Refer to your LexisNexis documentation for further instructions on completing these steps. |
|
You can turn off or hide the research menus or drop-down options for records in your case.
