Get focus of NotesUIDocument

HCL Domino Domino Forum

I’ve got a LotusScript action in a view that creates a new UIDoc, but when the action completes it give focus back to the view. Is there a way to automatically give focus to the newly created UIDoc in the same action script?

I needed to use LotusScript because I need to populate some fields, but cannot use “Formulas inherit values from selected document” because it will pull in some fields values that I don’t want.

TIA

Perhaps you could show your code?

Good idea Andre. :slight_smile:

Here it is:

Sub Click(Source As Button)

On Error Goto errorhandler



Dim ws As New NotesUIWorkspace

Dim uidoc1 As NotesUIDocument

Dim uidoc2 As NotesUIDocument

Dim company$

Dim ticker$

Set uidoc1 = ws.EditDocument( False )



company = uidoc1.FieldGetText("compname")

ticker = uidoc1.FieldGetText("ticker")



uidoc1.Close



Set uidoc2 = ws.ComposeDocument("","","Contact")

Call uidoc2.FieldSetText("compname",company)

Call uidoc2.FieldSetText("ticker",ticker)

Exit Sub

errorhandler:

Resume blankform

blankform:

Set uidoc2 = ws.ComposeDocument("","","Contact")

End Sub

TIA

have you tried putting the focus on the form:

blankform:

Set uidoc2 = ws.ComposeDocument(“”,“”,“Contact”)

call uidoc2.gotofield(“Anyfield”)

End Sub TIA
