Change field value in group

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hello,

We have a lot of groups in our Domino Directory.

I need to change the owners field and administrators field of each group.

Can someone help me to do this? Do I have to use an agent? Any code for this?

Thanks in advance

Subject: Automating changes to documents

Group documents in the Domino directory are just documents, and you would use the same techniques as you use for other documents. Use the document properties infobox from a view to discover the names of the fields that contain the values you want to change. Note the field properties (Read/write access names, in this case).Then you can write an agent to run on selected documents and change the values. E.g.:

SELECT field1 := “somevalue”;

FIELD field1 := “newvalue”;

FIELD field2 := “someothervalue”;

For test, run it on one document first. Open it to make sure you’ve changed the right fields, and use the Document Properties infobox from a view to make sure you still have the same field properties.
