Appendix B—Fillable Forms
When using LexisNexis Fillable Forms, you can easily and efficiently complete forms in
LexisNexis Total Practice Advantage using Microsoft Word.
The navigators and navigator related features discussed in this section may vary from those in your
installation of LexisNexis Total Practice Advantage. Your navigators will include features that are
relevant to the jurisdictions and practice areas included in your subscription.
Fillable Microsoft Word Documents
Each LexisNexis fillable form contains Microsoft Word fields where you can enter information. In
many forms, these fields also include advisory text (designated in red), which provides example
answers or indicates the type of answer that should be entered for a particular field.
Example:
(Defendant’s Name)
(Address)
Once you complete a form, you can remove the advisory text by following the procedure To
Remove All Advisory Text From the Form on page 76.
Microsoft Windows settings can cause the Word document for a fillable form to open in your Internet
Explorer browser instead of in Microsoft Word. To change this setting, follow the instructions on the
following Microsoft support page: http://support.microsoft.com/scid=kb;en-us;162059
To Enter Custom Answers in a Document
1 Open the Microsoft Word document you want to complete. When the document opens, you
will see several gray form fields throughout the document.
Example:
Defendant is a corporation that operates a store in County, Pennsylvania.
2 Click on a gray form field and enter the appropriate response. (When you click on a gray form
field, the gray shading disappears and you can type as much text as needed.)
Example:
Defendant Great Foods is a corporation that operates a grocery store in New County, Pennsylvania.
Removing the gray shading from the fields can also be accomplished by clicking the
Field Shading button.
