About exporting data

CaseMap allows you to extract case data to save in a variety of file formats, export directly to another application like Microsoft® Excel or Adobe® Acrobat, or into a companion product like TimeMap®, Sanction®, or NoteMap®. In order to view the exported data, you must have a license of the native application installed on your computer.

When you export data, only the current spreadsheet view is exported. If you have run a search filter on a spreadsheet prior to the export, then only the filtered data is included. You can export data just to preserve a backup copy of a filtered search or all records in a spreadsheet.

 

You can export CaseMap data from:

Spreadsheets — On the File tab, click Export to save the current spreadsheet view to a file on your computer or in a network folder.
List dialog boxesAccess list dialog boxes by double-clicking in a spreadsheet's # field, a CaseWide bar, or Evaluation Comparison cell for which you want to view data and then click Export.
