Examples: FormatMsgWithDoclinks method

  1. This view action script gets a collection of the documents currently selected in the view. It creates a newsletter containing links to each document in the collection, and saves it in the current database.
    Sub Click( Source As Button )
  Dim session As New NotesSession
  Dim db As NotesDatabase
  Dim collection As NotesDocumentCollection
  Dim newsletter As NotesNewsletter
  Dim doc As NotesDocument
  Set db = session.CurrentDatabase
  Set collection = db.UnprocessedDocuments
  Set newsletter = New NotesNewsletter( collection )
  Set doc = newsletter.FormatMsgWithDoclinks( db )
  doc.Form = "Summary"
  Call doc.Save( True, True )
End Sub
  2. This script performs a full-text search on the current database, creates a newsletter containing links to each document in the resulting collection, and saves the newsletter to SCIENCE.NSF on the current computer. The documents containing the most instances of the word "botany" are sorted at the beginning of the collection, so their links appear at the beginning of the newsletter. Each document's full-text relevance score is listed next to its link.
    Dim session As New NotesSession
Dim db As NotesDatabase
Dim summaryDb As NotesDatabase
Dim collection As NotesDocumentCollection
Dim newsletter As NotesNewsletter
Dim doc As NotesDocument
Set db = session.CurrentDatabase
Set summaryDb = New NotesDatabase _
( "", "summary\science.nsf" )
Set collection = db.FTSearch( "botany", 0 )
Set newsletter = New NotesNewsletter( collection )
newsletter.DoScore = True
Set doc = newsletter.FormatMsgWithDoclinks( summaryDb )
doc.Subject = "Garden of Botanical documents"
doc.Form = "Summary"
Call doc.Save( True, True )
  3. This agent script runs on all new and modified documents. It performs a full-text search on the unprocessed documents in the current database, creates a newsletter containing links to each document in the resulting collection, and mails the newsletter to Susanna Tallan. Each document's relevance score and Topic item are listed in the newsletter next to the document's link.

    The script then marks each document as processed so that the UnprocessedFTSearch method does not search for these documents the next time the agent runs.
