Is it possible to show that there is responses to a document without showing the responses in a view - f.ex. with a icon.We would like to only show the main documents in a view without showing the responses in the view, but show them in the document as an embeded view. Our only problem is showing in the view that the document has responses.

Not natively, no.
A response knows it’s parent, but a parent knows nothing about it’s response(s).
You could program this by having the response documents update a flag/counter in the parent document, but that can become awkward if the responses can be deleted.

In Lotus Script, you can get access to the responses via NotesDocument.responses. (Maybe also NotesUIDocument, I’m not sure.) This one returns a document list with all the response documents. You can enter them and do everything with them as with parent documents. So it is not correct that a parent knows nothing about its responses.
