How to get the name of the $File uploaded

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hi,

I want an agent code in Lotus Script to find out the name of the $File uploaded to a document.

I have embedded file upload control in my form. I click it and upload a file, now I want to retrieve the name of the file uploaded.

So what my agent should do is when I select on the particular document on the view and run that agent, I should retrieve the corresponding document’s File name.

How will I do it? Pls help.

This is the agent I gave: But it gives Object variable not set…

Sub Initialize

Dim doc As NotesDocument

Dim rtitem As Variant

Dim object As NotesEmbeddedObject

Dim objectName As String    

Set rtitem = doc.GetFirstItem( "Body" )

If ( rtitem.Type = EMBED_ATTACHMENT) Then

	Set object = rtitem.GetEmbeddedObject("XYZ")

	objectName = object.Name

	If ( object Is Nothing ) Then

		Messagebox( "Unable to find an object named Jim" )

	Else

		Messagebox( "objectName" )

	End If

End If

End Sub

pls help…

If attaching the file through the web, the attachment won’t be in the field Body.

Here are some suggestions in this forum for code also:

I searched for web and attachment

In the future I would suggest that when you provide error messages returned by the code, include the error line number etc. Otherwise it is very hard for people to help you. Be sure to check the Domino Designer Help for Error handling, that will help you track down issues, and make it easier for others to help you if you follow some of the suggestions in that area.
