I want to know if I have Domino 8.0.1 or 8.0.2, and so I need a SIMPLE command to display actual version of Domino.Can somebody provide such a command ?

Thanks. Sebastian.

Subject: Getting version

You can call the ‘@Version’ function in the formula language or get the ‘NotesBuildVersion’ property of the NotesSession class in LotusScript which will give you the build number.

You can then translate the build number to get the release using the chart below:

114 - Notes 3.x

136 - Notes 4.0, 4.0x

138 - Notes 4.1, 4.1x

145 - Notes 4.5, 4.5x

147 - Notes 4.6

166 - Notes 5.0, 5.0x

190 - Notes 6.0, 6.0.1

191 - Notes 6.0.2

194 - Notes 6.0.3, 6.5

198 - Notes 6.5.5

199 - Notes 6.5.6

256 - Notes 7.0

261 - Notes 7.0.1

265 - Notes 7.0.2

266 - Notes 7.0.3

307 - Notes 8.0

322 - Notes 8.0.1

323 - Notes 8.0.2

359 - Notes 8.5

Subject: simple command

Thanks, Alex.But your methos assumes I can write Lotus Script, and maybe it is not the case.

By ex, in MQ there is a Command Prompt command : see bellow - simple and elegant.

Anything similar for Domino ?

c:>dspmqver

Name: WebSphere MQ

Version: 7.0.1.0

CMVC level: p000-L090813

BuildType: IKAP - (Production)

Subject: Issue command on the Domino Console

The example I gave you provides you with both Notes Formula language and the LotusScript language so you could take your pick as to which you’re more familiar with.

An alternative method is to issue the ‘Show Server’ command on the Domino server console. It will provide with basic information about the Domino server including the version number.

Subject: lotusscript

well if you are working with Domino and in this forum then you SHOULD be able to write LotusScript.

Subject: Where?

Where are you wanting to see this, and in what circumstance. You don’t give much info.

If, as I think you’re saying, you want to type something onto the server console, then ‘show server’ would give you the relevant info.

If you have access to the Directory though the server document tells you what you need to know
