Design modification to open Web document

I have a web application where I need to modify the formula in a “computed when composed” field. For this to have any effect on existing documents, I also need to delete the existing value. Testing has shown that if I delete a field on a Notes document while it is open in a browser the user is required to re-login and any current information entered in the browser is lost. Does anyone have experience with this scenario or suggestions? Thanks

Howdy!

A silly question… do you HAVE to do it during working hours or can you schedule an agent when everyone’s asleep? It can easily cause problems when you modify a document in the back-end while a user is also trying to modify it in the front end.

I haven’t tried it, but what about the document locking in R6?

HTH!

Thanks Steve, the application is spread over several time zones and we’re trying to keep it up 24/7, but that is our fall back position. I was hoping for a solution that we could make during production, and not effect users. Thank again.

Well… if it is up 24/7, you should look at Lotusscript’s NotesViewEntryCollection “StampAll” method. I find it’s quick, and has less of chance of causing a conflict.

Good luck! :wink:
