How to parse text from a file and paste results into stationery in Notes 6.5

TenSigh — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 04:12:29 +0000

Hello, I’m new to Lotusscript and have a question that probably won’t be too difficult for a seasoned script writer.

Every day I have to get the first three lines from a log file and paste them into a stationery form and email it out. The log file is a basic text file and the first three lines are short. I usually just copy and paste them into my stationery form and send it out, but if I could use an agent that would save the time of having to ALT-TAB, open file, select text, etc. I used KB shortcuts so it’s relatively quick but it does require that I leave notes.

If I could place the cursor in my stationery form then run an agent which grabs those 3 lines and pastes them in it would go really quick. The last line is the timestamp so it’s not static text.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Lotus Forwarding Agent

Sdray — Thu, 28 Jul 2011 15:52:55 +0000

Hi there I am trying to get a LotusScript agent to forward an email and although it runs without any error messages, the email doesn’t arrive at the designated address, and there is nothing in the sent-mail box.

Sub Initialize()

Dim s As New NotesSession

Dim db As NotesDatabase

Dim view As NotesView

Dim doc As NotesDocument

Dim forward As NotesDocument

Dim forwardaddress As String

Dim x As Integer

Set db = s.CurrentDatabase

Set view = db.getview(“MimeDefang”)

Set doc = view.getfirstdocument()

forwardaddress=”sd@gmail.com”
x=0

Set forward = New NotesDocument(db)

Call doc.CopyAllItems(forward, True)

Call forward.Send(false, forwardaddress)

Need information about Dialog list field values (Lotus Notes)

carlosdl — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 20:22:36 +0000

[strong]Can the values within the Dialog list fields be tied together. Below is my scenario.[/strong]

[strong]The Status Field should be tied to the Type of Request field. Both are dialog list with values.[/strong]

Status field will be auto populated with some values on what is entered into the Type of Request field, the drop down selections under the Status field should still remain the same and the ability to change the status remain intact.

Lotus Notes – To-do with automated time reminder

Abhigreen — Mon, 20 Jun 2011 12:20:07 +0000

I am using Lotus Notes 8. When I create a to-do task, I want it to prompt me to enter a time when I want to receive the task notification.

Lotus Notes 8 To-Do Window only has the option of Notify Me, where I can select the no of days before/after the due date will be notified. No Option to enter specific time

I assume if I can write a script to automatically have the Reminder feature show up while entering a to-do task, then I can enter the time in the reminder tab.

Just dont know how to do it in Lotus Script. Any guidance is appreciated

Thanks

Global Variables in Lotus Script

Alan327 — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 13:22:49 +0000

I need to transfer 4 pieces of data from a dialog box form (generated by lotus script) back to the primary form.

For consistency , I am not using the standard Cancel/OK buttons of the dialog box and since OK is not pressed, the dialog box data is not returned to the primary form.

Is there a way to programattically use lotus script to indicate the OK button has been pressed (or whatever) so data is automatically transferred back to the primary form?

OR

Can lotus script code be added to the standard OK button and/or the button renamed?

OR

Is it possible to set a temporary global variable in the dialog box form button code and then used in the primary form when the dialog box is closed?

I would rather not use the application’s profile doc.

Exporting documents to Excel worksheet. Going well, but need to have the Excel sheet open in landscape. What would be the commands for that? This works fine so far:
