Configuring iManage Software
An issue with iManage Integration for Office, a Word add‑in distributed with some versions of iManage FileSite and DeskSite, can cause Word to temporarily become unresponsive when documents close while using Contract Tools. A solution is available in versions of iManage Integration for Office distributed with FileSite and DeskSite 9.3.5 and later.
When a document closes, iManage Integration for Office sets the property of a range (similar to a selection in Word) to the property’s current value. In computer programming, this is called a self-assignment. A self-assignment typically has no effect, but in this case, it causes Word to perform a time-consuming and unnecessary task with data that Contract Tools uses to sync analysis results with documents while there are unanalyzed changes. As a result, Word may temporarily become unresponsive.
iManage tracks this issue using reference number NT‑72170. For more information, see Quick Update CSAR-2626 for FileSite and DeskSite 9.3.5 with Office Integration, available at https://imanage.com.
With versions of iManage Integration for Office distributed with FileSite and DeskSite 9.3.5 and later, you can resolve this issue by creating this Registry value:
| Name | Type | Data |
|---|---|---|
| RemoveRangeSelfAssignment | REG_SZ | Y |
You create this Registry value in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE hive. The key path of this Registry value depends on whether you use 64‑bit or 32‑bit software.
If you use the 64‑bit version of Windows with 64‑bit versions of iManage software, or the 32‑bit version of Windows with 32‑bit versions of iManage software, the key path is SOFTWARE\Interwoven\WorkSite\8.0\Integration\Options.
If you use the 64‑bit version of Windows with 32‑bit versions of iManage software, the key path is SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Interwoven\WorkSite\8.0\Integration\Options.
