Hi, guys,
Is there any solution for private folders on web?
My database is used via web and notes. So I need same solution for both UIs.
I tried to create shared folders and set $Updaters to specific user. Seems fine, but… for testing purposes I created 6000 shared folders in one database. It’s taking too much time to open a database (in Notes). Also I don’t even realize how a server will perform when updating indexes of so many folders. With R5 database is not opening at all: “Maximum number of memory segments reached that notes can support” or something like that.
So maybe you have designed something new? Not folders, just acting like folders. Anything?
Please help.
Thanks

Here is what you do -
On the form, store in a field something makes the document unique to the private view. (aka UserName of the Author)
Next create a categorized view that have that field as the first column categorized.
Next embed this view either into a form or a page and name that form or page $$ViewTemplate for Viewname
On the properties of the embeded view, have it show one category and have it calculate to the value of the first column (ie username)
Then just open that view in the web as normal. It will only show those documents in that category.
As to the Notes Client, just continue to use the private views, but don’t allow the users to add them to the database, have them make them on the locale client instead.

Would be great, but I can not update docs. The purpose of my folders is customized search. Users open my designed search form, fill values and submit. Background agent searches and puts doc collection to folder. There can be plenty of users who execute search on same docs, so I can not update any fields of them.

Actually you could.
Special field on each doc that is set to a mulivalue field.
The agent just adds to that field then pulls up the categorized view.
If you have the view to show multiple lines for each category then you are all set.
