URL to open a document in a categorized view

Hi there!

This should be simple, but I’m not getting it.

What is the format to open a document from a categorized view? I’ve tried: dbname.nsf/viewname/category/key?OpenDocument, but this doesn’t seem to work.

Thanks!

“<a href="”+“/”+@WebDbName+“/$/” + @Text(@DocumentUniqueID)+"?EditDocument">Edit Me

Why does the Category make any difference? You can’t open a document by category as many documents can be in the same category.

Or do you mean a cascaded view ?

So your view name is something like Docs\By Date for example?

In that case you can’t use \ you use the encoded value for \ which is %5C

So your example would be:

dbname.nsf/viewname%5Ccategory/key?OpenDocument

If you use a key, it MUST be the first sorted column. If the view is categorized, you can’t use a key – you need to either use the UNID or direct your links to an alternate, uncategorized view.

Thanks, Stan!

In this case, I must use a key so I’ll have to create an alternate uncategorized view.

Have a great day!
