my probleme is that i use 2 differents ways of attaching files from the Notes client and the web browser, now if i create a document from the web using the web attachement i would like the Notes attachement button to be hidden… Is it possible to know if a document was created over the web or Notes?

For Notes users, i did something like that :

i created a rich text field and a buton.

And on the click event i put this down :

@Command( [EditGotoField] ; );

@Command( [EditInsertFileAttachment] )

and for web users i used the upload controle.

could anyone help.

cheers

i created a hidden text field called “web” which lets me know if the document was created over the web or not (its value would be 1 if yes, and 0 if not)I’m using a special button to submit the document on the web (different than the one i use to submit in Lotus Notes) and when i submit from the web, with javascript i switch the field “web” to 1 and viceversa…

That’s how i do it

Well…since you made an effort…

Create a hidden text field called fld_ClientType that is set to “Computed when composed” and enter a formula of @ClientType.

Now, when you ceate a new document the value of fld_ClientType will be “Web” when created on the Web, and “Notes” when created in the Notes client.

That should work for you.

Look at @ClientType
