Users see only documents that releated to them… shared, private after first use… view selection formula like @Username=fieldname… OK! Everething Fine!
But is anybody try to use alternate names?
Formula like @Username(1)=fieldname didn’t work. Of course in fieldname stores alternate name of author of document. Why it not work?
Lotus help recomended to use alternate names (if they are present) in this case.
But I MUST to use them.
Subject: RE: Alternate names in view selection formula.
Are you using Desktop private on first use, or server private etc? The former will work with @Username.
I suggest you do something to find out what values the view indexing process is getting for your two values. Something like, create a copy of your view, change the selection formula to SELECT @All, create a view column that has the formula @Username(1) and a column that has the formula fieldname. Are they really identical for any documents?
