I don’t understand what you are trying to do.

Isn’t the first document in a (web) view the documetn that will be displayed at the top of the view? (depending on your sorting columns?)

Why do you need to differntiate that document?

Because in the first document I need show additional information, and no show in the other documents, show only in the first

OK, so let me get that straight:

In a viwe, you want to display some special additional information for the very first document, but not for any other documents?

If this is what you want to do, then the only way to handle this through a Notes view directly would be for your criteria to already be inside the document you know in advance will be the first document. (by running an agent that will put a 1 inside a field, for instance).

Then the column formula becomes:

@If (Criteria = 1; InformationToDisplay ; “”)

Of course this isn’t very interesting, because it means its no longer dynamic and will not adapt as the document is no longer the first document in the view.

Another solution could be to use 2 frames.

On the upper frame, you could display a view will all the full information, and make it small enough to only display 1 line. On the bottom frame, the regular view would be displayed.

As you can see, there is no perfect solution for this.
