Open user's person document

Is there any code which when written in a button can open the person document of the user who clicks on it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You…

Yes-

Something like: (partial code)

Set NABdb = New notesDatabase(db.Server,“Names.nsf”

Set NABpeople = NABdb.getView(“($VIMPeople)”)

Set NABdoc = NABPeople.GetDocumentByKey(UserName , True)

If Not NABdoc.Is Nothing Then

Set maildoc = New notesdocument(db)

maildoc.form = “Memo”

Set rtitem = maildoc.createRichTextItem(“body”)

Call rtitem.AppendDocLink(NABdoc,NABdb.filename)

Call maildoc.send(False , SendTo.Abbreviated)

End If

Before I show the code, I will ask the following:

  1. Did you search the forum before posting your question? Probably not: http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/nd6forum.nsf/search?SearchView&Query=open%20AND%20person%20AND%20document%20AND%20button&SearchOrder=1&SearchMax=0&SearchWV=TRUE&SearchFuzzy=TRUE&Start=1&Count=100"

  2. Did you search Designer help?

Please do these things before posting!!!

This script will do what you are seeking:

Sub Click(Source As Button)

Dim session As New NotesSession

Dim ws As New NotesUIWorkspace

Dim nam As NotesName

Set nam=session.CreateName( session.username)

Dim strName As String

strName=nam.Abbreviated

Dim dbNames As NotesDatabase

Set dbNames=session.GetDatabase

   ("<ServerName>","Names.nsf")

If dbNames.IsOpen Then

   Dim viewNames As NotesView

   Set viewNames=dbNames.GetView("($VIMPeople)")

   Dim docName As NotesDocument

   Set docName=viewNames.GetDocumentByKey(strName, 

        True)

   If Not (docName Is Nothing) Then

   Call ws.EditDocument(False, docName)

   End If

End If

End Sub

Only problem with that one is that it asks the user to customize the NAB, when there are already built in views available:-(

I just wish people like the poster of this question would search the forum first!

I really didn’t look at the results of my search query, but took the first hit. Good point, though.

/sarcasm on

I am so glad that 3 of us provided an answer and that the poster has thanked us for our help.

/sarcasm off

And then people wonder why it is so hard sometimes to get help on this forum.
