Link CaseView data to Word or Excel

You can link data from a CaseView document to Word or Excel by saving the value of a cell to the CaseView database, then referencing the database record from your Microsoft document.

Note: You must disable the following option in the CaseView document before you can link data to Excel: Document Settings | Client Options | Document owns CaseView database records.

  2. In the Properties menu, click General. In the Calculation Properties group, select External Data Access.

    • In the Load Value Calculation field, enter a CaseView calculation.
    • In the Save Value Calculation field, enter r(0).

    Click OK.
