Usage


Parameter	Description
`view`	The name of the view in which to look up names.
`names`	The names to be searched in the view. Entries must match one of these names to be searched for items.
`items`	Summary data items whose values will be returned by the lookup.
`partialmatches`	Indicates partial matches of names are allowed.


Return value	Description
`DirectoryNavigator`	A newly created directory navigator containing the item values.

This method flushes the directory cache and resets all child navigators.

The items specified in this method can be: the programmatic name of a column (the programmatic name is not necessarily the display name); the programmatic name of a field in the note (names which are not columns in the specified view); a computed item provided by a name lookup (such as $$DbName). For best performance, use column names from the specified view or computed items.
