| Saving Projects for Later Use Westlaw has a feature that allows you to
save a project, made up of your searches from a Westlaw
session, so that you can re-enter the results without
having to duplicate your search query. To use this
feature, conduct your search the way you usually would.
But before you sign off, open the pull-down menu under
File in the upper left corner. Choose Save Project As
and save it to your network drive, naming it something
appropriate that you will remember. Then sign off Westlaw
as usual.
When you want to re-enter the
project, simply use the same File pull down menu and
choose Open Project. You will see a list of the
queries performed under this project. When you choose
one, you will be prompted to enter your ID. Westlaw
automatically inserts the Client ID from the project for
you.
