New version of Skytus 0.2.0 is available for download !

The major changes are installation and unistallation. Now this is MSI installation (before it was NSF, and I have to say I do not liked it). Now it will be more native for user to install and uninstall Skytus. There are also some changes/updates for functionality.

So go on and try it :)

open view into another database using outline

If you want to open view form another database into current one using outline -> use URL approach.

here is short instruction:

- open property of your outline an select one Entry

- select type URL and make result like this:

"notes://" + @Name([CN]; @ServerName) + "/" + DBReplicaID+ "/" + "myview?OpenView"

- do not forget to choose Frame (target)

This is actually very easy but some people asked me long time ago how to do that, so I would like to share this and help to anybody.

Old staff: Switch tabs/rows programatically

It is known thing but not VERY VERY known :-] , so it can be useful to anybody.

If you use tabs/rows on your forms and want to switch tabs/rows programmatic don't think that it difficult, it is very easy, couple clicks and couple lines of code.

So let's start, 'go go go' as we say :) !

1) Go to the property of table, open 'Table Programming' tab (the last one) and give the name of the whole table (Name/ID tag), also please give the name to all rows you want to switch using your code (Row Tags, Name)

2) Now let's go to the property Table Rows and select "Switch rows programatically" (otherwise it will not work, even if you cast magic), also enable 'show the tabs so user can pick row'.

3) Add field to the form with name = Name/ID tag and add prefix $. (f.x. if you called your table MainTable, field should be $MainTable, the purpose of this field is to contain name of row we need to show).

4) Now do your code, here is example of button/event

FIELD $MainTable := "Content";
@Command([ViewRefreshFields])

That's all.

RefreshDesign of NotesDatabase using NotesAPI

Here is an example how we can do refresh design using NotesAPI.

I'm really interesting in approach without NotesAPI, but did not find any good. If somebody know better approach, please share it :)

 Function RefreshDesign(sourceDb As NotesDatabase, refreshServer As string)  
 Dim destPath As String  
 Dim rc As Integer  
 Dim hDb As Integer  
 If sourceDb.Isopen Then  
 'sourceDb could be local or server  
 If sourceDb.server = "" Then  
 destPath = sourceDb.filePath  
 Else  
 destPath = sourceDb.server & "!!" & sourceDb.filePath  
 End If  
 ' Open the db in the API and get a handle to the open db  
 rc = W32_NSFDbOpen(destPath, hDb)  
 ' Return zero on success, non-zero on failure  
 If rc = 0 Then  
 rc = W32_DesignRefresh(refreshServer, hDb, 0, 0, 0)  
 Call W32_NSFDbClose(hDb)  
 End If  
 End If  
 End Function  

I've already installed 8.5.1 FP2, what about you :) ?

Just installed FP2, no issues this time like with FP1 :)

here is a link if you want to make update

We made new version of Skytus 0.1.15. it is available for download now !

What do we have in new version?
- fixed issues we found in last build (0.1.14).
- added some more stability to LN when it does not have Skype installed on it.
- we made many tests with this add-on so it should be much more stable.

So if you still did not try our tools, do it now: Skytus !

We will be happy for any comments/suggestions!

Cannot create automation object when we use RunOnserver

I had situation where my agent1 (I run it on server like agent1.RunOnserver).
Agent1 create OLE object (WinHttp.WinHttpRequest or MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP or it could be another OLE object without Quit/Exit method). As these objects do not have Quit/Exit method Domino continued to keep these objects in memory(?). So next time when I run agent I gave an error:

"Cannot create automation object"

I found workaround for this. It is strange, but it works.

I created new agent and called it on server instead of agent1 (f.x. agentNew.RunOnServer) This new agent called agent1 locally (f.x. Call agent1.Run). There is also article on IBM about solution for error Cannot create automation object
Funny, right?

Action failed, document has been deleted

Problem was because I used profile document (and somebody re-save/re-create it).
So Actually profile was in database but LS was unable to get it.

as solution I just re-save it and it started to work.
