Manipulating data in iNotes Lite forms

Thank you for reporting, Harris. Given the timestamp of Forms85.nsf, it appears that 8.5.1 release is in use. With 8.5.1 release, how to get Custom_MailRetention subform loaded is slightly different. I've added how to do that in 8.5.1 in this article.

Best regards,

Manipulating data in iNotes Lite forms

One thing I ran into when putting the subform references into the 25-Sept-2009 Forms85 forms, was that I couldn't get the subforms to come up unless I specified "AllowPreset ="yes"... .

Manipulating data in iNotes Lite forms

Hi Sean,

1) I'm glad that you figured that out yourself. As I think you have found, the reviewer field comes when retention period is longer.

2) Posting code here requires more review process and I haven't got time to make it go through that. I'm thinking of posting the code in some way once 8.5.1 gets Gold, as iNotes 8.5.1 has a separate forms template (the plan is something like Forms85_x.nsf) from main forms template (Forms85.nsf). Meanwhile, you can copy and paste the sample code to your forms template.

Best regards,

- Akira

re question 1

Akira, I can see now that the functionality in 1) is included so ignore that ! The example to download would be great. Sean

two questions

Akira,

1) the example from the pre notes 8.5 article shows a drop down for the approver name on the modal form. This is the functionality that I am interested in. It is not in this example - was there a specific techncial reason or difficulty why it was not included ?

2) the previous example also provides a download of the example files - could we have the example for this one posted here ( or via email in the short term )

Thanks again, Sean

The latest architecture

Hi Harris,

Thank you for your comments. I'm glad that you see the improvements that began with 8.0.1 lite mode.

I think below article most explains the latest architecture:

great article...

Akira, great article. I have been developing in iNotes since R5. I haven't yet done R85, and your article helps a lot to understand what is going on behind the scenes. The performance enhancements for Lite mode are getting better and better, but they cause rebaselines of existing code. Your article helps me make sense of the newest environment. Where can I see more?
