How can I tell which documents have authors when a form field changed from a plain text field to an authors field?

Hi there!

I’ve inherited a database and I suspect that a field type has changed at some point. I suspect it was a text field initially and now it’s an authors field. On older documents, people are not able to edit their own documents. There are over 1200 documents.

Is there a way I can tell the type of field that was used during the creation of the document?

Check out NotesItem IsAuthor property. You should be able to use that in an agent to figure things out.
