Installing CaseMap

The CaseMap client application is installed to the Microsoft® Windows® desktop of any CaseMap user. If you are using the CaseMap SQL version, the install utility will prompt you to enter the URL to the CaseMap Server. The URL should end with CMServerClient.svc.

CaseMap installs as an unregistered trial copy. There is a 30-day grace period to use CaseMap. Once the grace period expires, CaseMap will no longer function. The unregistered copy of CaseMap works identically to the registered version. If you are reinstalling over a registered version of CaseMap, you will not need to re-register.

 

CaseMap client installation overview:

CaseMap must be installed and run on a local hard drive
CaseMap cannot be run from a network server
You must be logged on with administration rights to install CaseMap
CaseMap data files can be stored in a file on a network drive or in a Microsoft® SQL Server® database
Previous version cases must be converted to open in the current CaseMap version
DocPreviewer and DocManager are downloaded as part of CaseMap (optional subscription CaseMap plug-ins)
Microsoft Word and Microsoft Outlook plug-ins (optional during installation)

Cases need to be converted to the current version format. Once a case is converted, users with previous CaseMap versions cannot open it. We recommend you upgrade all CaseMap users working in the same case at the same time. For details, see Converting cases.

Installing a new version of CaseMap replaces any current installation of the Send to CaseMap plug-in for Adobe Acrobat with a new version. The new Send to CaseMap plug-in may work in earlier versions of CaseMap, though some features may be disabled. We recommend that you do not upgrade to a new version of CaseMap until you are ready to stop using earlier versions of the product and can migrate previous version cases to the current CaseMap version.

You can install the latest CaseMap client application version to a desktop that already has previous versions of CaseMap installed. It will not remove the prior version.
