I find that View, Folders can be created Private, shared…So similarly can Form be private. and what about Document? Can it be private?
Subject: Can be Private
nope, you have to understand, a form is only a mask used to visualize documents.
As for document, they cannot be private per say, although you can use Readers fields to restrict who can see the document, I suggest you read about it in the help database.
Subject: RE: Can be Private
Actually, it’s just a readers field that makes a folder or a view private as well. The “shared, private on first use” element is a special case – there’s some jiggery-pokery in the product code that creates a copy of the design element and adds a $Readers field when the user attempts to open the public design element, then the decision on where to store the view is based on whether it’s “desktop private” or, if not, whether the user can store private views on the server.

What about ‘Mark Private’ when Document is in edit mode?

The “mark private” you are referring to can only be seen on a Calendar Entry form in your mail file. It certainly is NOT a “document feature”.
What the “mark private” checkbox would be doing in the background is setting the Readers field to your name only so that it is not visible to anyone else but you.
PLEASE do read up on Readers/Authors fields in the Designer Help. Its always a good place to start.

No it can be in others form too. I have used Doc Library Template to create NSF and I create a document. Now When document is in EDIT mode there is another Button added on it at TOP ‘Mark Private’. I am not talking about DESIGNER.

Again, that uses a Readers-type field. You can do the same kind of thing (CAN does not translate to SHOULD) on any document you can edit using the security tab of the document properties dialog – that, too, uses a Readers-type field named $Readers.
