Subject: synchronize front and backend documents

If you access a backend document from it’s front end document then by default, changes to fields on the backend document appear in the front-end document automatically.

e.g.

================

Dim ws as New NotesUIWorkspace

Dim uidoc as NotesUIDocument

Dim doc as NotesDocument

Set uidoc=ws.currentDocument

Set doc=uidoc.document

=============

uidoc has an ‘Autorefresh’ property which can be set to ‘false’ if you don’t want the backend updates to automatically pass to the front end.

The exception to the rule is rich text fields. These do not automatically refresh and how you handle this depends on the version of notes that you are using. There are lots of posts in this forum about how to do this.
