Very odd thing on authors property of notesdocument

I found a very strange thing on Authors property of notesdocument. An agent is initiated from postsave event. this agent will display the author of the document. When I put this agent in server, display is empty string, however when putting the agent locally, I see my real name is displaying.

I tried both in R5 and R6. same result.

doesn’t make sense to me.

Any idera?

below is snippet of the agent:

Dim author1 As Variant

Dim ws As New notesUIworkspace

Dim s As New notessession

Dim uidoc As NotesUIDocument

Set uidoc  = ws.CurrentDocument

Dim doc As NotesDocument

Set doc = uidoc.Document





author1 = doc.Authors

Msgbox author1(0)

Are u using Author field, if you use a “Computed when composed” author field the agent works fine.
