If you want to edit a Legal Hold file that has the F-Lock option applied to it, do the following:

In the file list, right-click the locked file.

Select File > Check Out > Local Mirror Folder.

Open the file in the mirrored location by double-clicking the file with Checked-Out status.

Edit the file as necessary.

Save changes to the file.

In the file list, select Check-In under the file.

The File > Check-In dialog appears. Select Add as a new version.

Note: If you select Discard local mirror copy and revert to original, your edits will not be saved.

The file is checked back into Worldox as a new version. The new version number appears next to the file in the Ver# column.
