Notes Compatibility Issues

hcl-bot · February 11, 2005, 8:00am

I have developed an application in Notes 6.5.1 and intend to role it out to users who have both 5 and 6 clients.

The application contains a form with numerous hide/when formulas and fields are displayed depending on the option the user takes.

In 6, this is working perfectly but when the same application is run in Notes 5, the whole form is displayed regardless of what option the user selects. Notes 5 appears to be ignoring the hide/whens.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Mike

Do your hide-when formulas use any @Functions that don’t work in R5? e.g. @Count, @For, @IfError… You can check the Designer help under “What’s new in 6” for the full list.

My hide/when criteria is simply:

Selection = “ICIS”

OR

Selection = “Return Record”

The Selection variable is defined in the action before the form is opened.
