Subject: View_can access 2 forms !
If I understand you requirement, just turn your words into a formula:
Select
(Form = “form1Name” & MyField = “MyValue”)
|
(Form = “form2Name” & MyOtherField = “MyValue”)
HTH

Select(SELECT Form = “A Service Request” & Status = “Assess”)|(SELECT Form = “PortManagement”
)
but It wont allow two select statements
anysuggestions
Subject: RE: View_can access 2 forms !
SELECT Form = “A Service Request” & Status = “Assess” | Form =“PortManagement”
Alternately
SELECT Form = (“A Service Request” & Status = “Assess”) :“PortManagement”
Should work as well

Stop thinking in terms of forms and think of documents instead it might help you understand this I think.
It sounds like you have two documents, which you typically read using two different Forms. Think of forms as nothing but viewers for the documents. Domino/Notes is not relational so there is no direct link between documents unless you manually create them, or they are parent and response document (it doesn’t sound like they are).
So if I understand this right have document 1 which is viewed using form “A Service Request” and document 2 which is viewed using form “PortManagement” ?
So if you want document 2 to be updated when document 1 is updated, you have to put in that code to do it yourself. Take a look at PostSave and QuerySave events in the form.

“So if you want document 2 to be updated when document 1 is updated, you have to put in that code to do it yourself.”
Ahh, that might be a valid translation …

Could you try to explain this in other words?
Do you want all documents to open with the same form? If so, you can specify a form formula right beneath the selection formula.
Subject: Check the answer Doug gave again, you don’t need two select statements.

Its impacting other things which i understand Lnotes behaves 2 forms in one view creating duplicates if i am wrong give suggestions

First- documents appear in views, forms do not. (The form is what the document gets merged in to to see it- secondly, a document can appear several times in aview if a multivalue field is categorized. It is still the same document- if it gets edited, it still is correct. So can you be more specific on the difficulty that is being created?
Subject: View_can access 2 forms !
Not sure if I get you correctly, but Notes can display documents that have been created with any number of forms you like. It’s just a matter of writing the correct selection formula. You can read and edit documents displayed in that view.
Was that what you are looking for?
