I know this is possible I just don’t know how to do it. What I have is an application that tracks sales and the sales people keep all their sales appointments in their calendars. The managers want to see a view all their sales and beside it the calendar. I thought of using a frameset but I found out that I can not put any code to select what to put in the frame. I tried using the @command([openmail]) but it can’t be used in that context. If any body knows how they do it for the portal it will be great. I know that the welcome page in notes you can set one of the frames as the calendar. How is it done?
Please remember that a calendar is nothing more than a view with a special option set.
You can define that contents of a frame in a frameset (not the frameset itself though) to be a view. Yuo might also use a categorized embedded view. And here you can limit what you see, based on the contents of a field.
The view will have to be dynamic as the user will select the name of the sales person and I had the idea of a two frame frameset where in one frame I will put the view with the sales and in the other frame the calendar. As you can see the view will not be the same everytime. I can open the view and the calendar on their own without any problem but when I try to put it on the frame there is no where to put code to make the view on the frame dynamic. I am also having trouble putting the sales view on the other frame because it is dynamic I used an embedded view and code on the post open but I get an error message there too. Any comments or suggestions are very welcome.
You can “connect” frames in a frameset when you use special names. When the targetframe is called NotesPreview you can use another frame to control this first one.
Thanks for the response. Would you please elaborate on the special names for frames. Is there a place where I can found the special names and how to control them?
