Hi
I am copying documents from one database to another. Once copied I would like to make the new documents response documents but am getting the following error:
Notes error: You are not authorized to perform that operation
I have manager access to the database and can create documents by hand. Here is the code I am using to create documents:
---------------- start of code
’ now get the document
Set clientDoc = clientDB.GetDocumentByUNID (doc.scu_DOC_UID (0))
If clientDoc Is Nothing Then Goto nextDoc
’ now create a new document
Set newDoc = New NotesDocument (clientDB)
If newDoc Is Nothing Then Goto nextDoc
newDoc.form = “fmAppointment”
Call newDoc.Save (True, False) ’ added this to make sure I can create documents in the DB
Call newDoc.MakeResponse (clientDoc) ’ get error 4000 here “not authorized”
---------------- end of code
I use the exact same code to create documents in another database and it works perfectly. I have added myself explicitly in the ACL of each db. I am using OpenLog and am getting my user in the User / Effective name fields. The Access Level is Manager!
Anybody have an idea what is going on here?
Thanking you in advance for any info

Hi Bill
thank you for you quick response.
Yes, the form is a response form (response to response). I can also create the document by hand - the problem is when I run the agent (still as the same user) I get the error. This is basically what is bugging me - if I got the error when doing it by hand I would know that I have an ACL problem.
Any other ideas?

Make sure you have explicitly dim’d the response and parent docs as documents.
dim pdoc as notesdocument
dim rdoc as notesdocument

Hi Raphael
thank you for your answer
Yes, I have explicitly dim’ed the documents. The code works with a second database which is weird. I was wondering if the ACL is broken - maybe I should delete it and recreate?

If it was a problem with the ACL you should get the error when you save the document not when you try to make it a response. This also needs to be the other way around - make it a response and then save it.
I notice you are getting the document from an id stored in a field using doc.scu_DOC_UID (0). When you copy it over the new document will have a different unique id. Could it be that clientdoc is pointing to the document in your other database?
