@Command (Formula Language)

Executes a Notes/Domino command. Most of the standard menu commands can be executed using @Command. In addition, a number of specialized commands are available. In a formula, any command invoked using @Command runs in the order you specify in the formula. This means that any changes made by the command, such as inserting text into a field, affect the rest of the formula (see exceptions).

Syntax

@Command( [ command ] ; parameters )

Usage

This function does not work in column, selection, hide-when, section editor, window title, field or form formulas, scheduled, new and modified and mail processing agents that run on a server or agents that run on all documents or selected documents. It's intended for use in toolbar button, hotspot, and action formulas.

Exceptions

The commands listed in the Evaluated after all @functions column in the table (as follows)always execute after all the functions present in a formula are executed, which means that the action performed by a command cannot be used by a function that follows it in a formula. The commands listed in the Evaluated immediately column have the equivalent functionality to the corresponding Evaluated after all @functions commands, except they execute as soon as they are encountered in the formula.

Note: The Evaluated as encountered commands are new with Release 6.
