I am displaying all notes icons in a view. I then use a Dialog List field that grabs choices using a View-Dialog that correspond to a view icon. These values are then stored in a field “ViewIcon”.
For instance doc1 has a value “181” for the field “ViewIcon”, which is associated with a red flag (vwicn181.gif). Doc2 has a value of “182” which is a green flag (vwicn182.gif).
Doc3 has a field value of "183 which is a white flag (vwicn183.gif).
Doc4 has no value in the field “ViewIcon”.
I can store values in individual documents and reflect the associated icons in views. Each document can have it’s own icon association. No problem here.
Question:
How do I display these icon (that are based on a field value) when I am in NotesUIDocument?
Do I have to do some fancy-smanshy code and actual attach the icon to a RichText field or some similar idea. I would think there would be a simple way.
I have a feeling that if it was easy, priority icons would be shown in NotesUIDocuments when we are in our personal mail database. Doesn’t hurt to ask the question though.
Also, I considered the use of PassThru html and computed text to display the icons but for some reason this seemed to work only for the Web and not in NotesUIDocument.
