Need C-API Help for destroying properties menu

Hello Everybody:

since i am posting my question again and again.

but i dint get any satisfactory run through this forum.

as i am openinng /my word/excel attachment on form postopen event( actually i am putting c-Api code over here to open the word/excel attachment automatically)

the thing i got weired is that it works well, but property window for attachment still remains opened.

and also i want to control that user should not close the current document before the closing word/excel template:

Please Note : I know that it could be done from forms properties as well, but my intension is to open my keyword excel/word template.

Please let me pass through solution!!!

anybody from IBM please!!!

Why not have the “launch attachment on open” property set on the keyword document and open the keyword document through your script?

Subject: RE: need C-API Help for destroying properties menu

As the keyword documents are central repository and note used for end user purpose!!!

Again i am simulating my idea here!!!

i am taking control of keyword document that is stored in keyword document!!!

the action button will be present to user on click of the that button the script will run and will copy the attachment from keyword document and will create the document with another form. that document will be put on edit mode!!!

so on that document(form) --Postopen event–> i am putting Notes API that will automate the launching automatically (ie withouth going to attachment and clicking through mouse)

the thing is that API i stated earlier work very well but still the properties dialog for attachment is opened…

so do you have any option that to control this properties dialogue box and closing of the docuemnt will see it should not close the current opened document before word/excel should closed!!!

Mike this seems to be very complex and somewhat challenging for all of the view!!!

for API you can prefer more:

could you please try to search for the same…

Why does it matter that the keyword documents are not visible to the end user? - you have to get a handle on them anyway to launch the attachment! So in your code, just open the keyword document which will kick off the auto-launch property

The Notes C API does not provide any documented functions for controlling the UI of the Notes client. The calls that you are using are NOT part of the Notes C API. They are part of the Windows API. It might be possible to do what you want by hacking around in the Windows API, but that’s totally unsupported by IBM, and there’s a good chance it won’t be possible to do it at all. Of, if you can do it, it is likely that it will only only work in certain cases, and could stop working if you upgrade any of the software on your computers, etc. And it would take extensive investigation by someone with strong Windows API skills just to figure out what the possibilities are. It doesn’t sound like you’ve got the skills to do that yourself, and you are extremely unlikely to find someone here to do this work for you, so you may want to consider re-thinking your objection to technique that has been given to you multiple times already, and which has the additional benefit of actually being supported by IBM.
