Checking the Notes Client Version before allowing the user to use a DB

I have a DB that I’m making that does a @if statement. One of the actions is to do a @mailsend. This deosnt’ seem to work with Notes Client pre 7.x At least it’s not working in my environment. Is there a command that can be used when the DB is initialized to see if the Notes Client is 7.x or greater before allowing the DB to be open.

If the client is pre 7.x, I would like to do some sort of @prompt message and then close the DB.

Thanks for you help.

I guess I didn’t look hard enough. I just found the @version syntax.

How about checking on NotesVersion property of NotesSession and, if it’s not high enough, use the NotesUIDatabase Close method? See Domino Designer Help under NotesVersion for details of version numbers returned.

Cheers,

You could also try to debug why the @MailSend doesn’t work.

Here is one possibility:

Another developer here found out why the @MailSend

does not work in R6. It was a problem in R4 corrected

in R5 but does not work in R6. In order for @MailSend

to work in an Action Button, you must have a defalut

form and a default view selected. If either of these is

not selected, the @MailSend will not work.
