To update user pager information, I need to user dsmod user -pager 2321 option. But in the GUI browser, there is also "other" option which I need to fill. How can I add anything there using command line?
See this article at Microsoft: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc732954.aspx
This command supports only a subset of commonly used object class attributes.
You will have to use something else if you wish to do this via command line. Powershell or vbs will help you achieve this.

I am currently trying to track down a problem in another persons agent. The agent crashes when it performs a lookup with a certain view in another database (I do not have designer access to it). In order to see whats wrong I wanted to take a look at the view and see if its empty or not. Problem is that I only have the "real name" of the view and navigation in Notes only gives me the "display name" which is totally different.
I searched the entire client if is possible to navigate to the view by "real name" but I did not find anything. Does anyone know?
If you have a properly installed Notes client, and a version of Windows which includes PowerShell, you can do the following after you open a Powershell prompt:
$ns = New-Object -COM Lotus.NotesSession
$ns.Initialize()
$db = $ns.GetDatabase("Server", "Filepath")
$db.Views | sort Name | ft Name, Aliases -auto
If the Notes type library is properly installed, you should execute the first command without issues.
If the client is properly installed and you entered the right password, the Notes session should have been properly initialized.
If the server and filepath are correct, the third instruction should execute without issues.
If all goes well, you will get a sorted list of all the views in the database, with their corresponding aliases (I think you are referring to the alias of a view when you refer to the "real name").
Edit: I should clarify that "all the views in the database" only includes the views that are visible for you. The database ACL may block you from accessing some views.
You can use the NotesPeek tool. It will let you explore everything in the database that you have rights to see, using a tree-style UI.
I hope this two tips will help you:
Shortcuts to open also hidden views in the database:
How to display hidden views in a Notes/Domino database
Or if point 1. does not help you try to make a toolbar action with the following formula:
OpenView #Command
and then, open the database where you think the view is and run the toolbar action.
If you are not familiar how you can make toolbar action mabye this link will help you:
Customize toolbar functionality and buttons
You know view's "real name" (= alias).
Create a button or agent somewhere with following LotusScript code:
Dim workspace As New NotesUIWorkspace
Call workspace.OpenDatabase("yourServer", "yourDatabasePath", "yourViewRealName")
or with following formula:
#Command([FileOpenDatabase]; "yourServer" : "yourDatabasePath"; "yourViewRealName")
and execute it in Notes Client. It will open the view.
As an alternative, copy the database to Local with the option "Application design only" and without option "Access Control List" and explore it in Designer.
I have some documents on a subdirectory for example www.example.com/documents, inside the document folder i have files(e.g. File1.doc, file2.docx, and So on). I want users to view the files But not to download it.
How can i do this?
In order to view the file the user need to download them... Maybe I don't fully get your point but I think this is not an option
(Programmer's Lore-Keepers) forgive my suggestions here...
This is a bit of a 'grey-area-programming'.
Have you considered perhaps using a technology of your choice javascript/jQuery to capture the "known" ways of copying while on your page?
Positive test : suppose the user clicks enter on a textbox and you're using jQuery to trap the enter command to then set off your trigger that is a default action to a control of your choice.
Think about this as a negative test... if the user uses key combinations such as Ctrl+A or Ctrl+P or Ctrl+S then you intercept it and interrupt their action in theory...
Other factors to consider would be how to capture the mouse drags and perhaps even right-click actions.
Hope this helps.
I have 90 profiles,and a bunch of record types. Business wants to know who has access to a current record type (picklists..)
the only way i know how to do this, is to go profile by profile and check the Record Type Settings and see if it's listed.
is there a way to just generate a list or something? either through the point and click or apex?
EDIT:
I tried doing a search on the .profiles but eclipse doesn't support multi-line searches. Though it does support regexes i can't get my regular expression right, OR eclipse doesn't like me. Given my poor programming skills (and how I yell at my computer) it might be the latter. This is the string I want to search on.
<recordType>Event.RTEvent</recordType>
<visible>false</visible>
For something like this, I find that Notepad++ is a huge help. It supports multi-line searches if you enable the extended search mode (a simple radio button at the bottom of the Find menu), allowing you to grab line breaks (\r, \n, etc.). Pretty simple to do this across all of your profiles as well by navigating to the profiles folder of the Eclipse project in Windows Explorer, selecting all files, then right-click and select "Edit with Notepad++". Once they're all open, hit ctrl-F, enable the extended search mode, and search for something like this:
Event.RTEvent</recordType>\n <visible>false
Note that you may need to adjust the number of spaces after the \n depending on how far the data is indented. Click "Find All in All Opened Documents", and it'll give you a list of all occurrences of that string in your profiles files.
I have set .jpg file associated to my own program. I want to add the context menu to .jpg files, so I set the entry of HKCR.jpg\shell\open\command to "myProg.exe %1". After associating, there will be an item on the top of the context menu saying "Open image with myprog". This works right when I select a single .jpg file, but when I selected more than one file and click the top item of the context menu, nothing happended. How can I solve the problem?
Thank you very much
Each selected file will be sent to a new instance of your application. Your application should check if a previous version exists, or not. If a previous instance exists, it should sent its parameters to it (e.g. using Windows Messages) and then terminate.
Another approach is to use DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange), an old method used by Shell to send all files to one instance of your program.
You might need double quotes around the "%1".
Read this article for much more detailed information about how all this works.

How to put a File path control in VBA front panel? I want the user to be able to select the browse button and select the file path rather than putting up dialog boxes all over the place. I need the user to select three or more file paths.
After re-re-reading your Q, it seams you want to steer away from dialog boxes!Oh well, I was going to say
I could post the hack about using MSDIAG on VBA, that explains
how you can patch your registry to
enable its use under VBA,
without having other MS-VB products
installed... but I rather have you
google that one... you can certainly
understand why.
But you don't want Dialog Boxes... you want controls and buttons: Use listboxes!
To populate your listbox, use the Dir command (using method additem of the listbox).
Two phases for achieving that:
first get the Directories (and prefix a "->" or whatever prior to adding it on the listbox, so that the user understands this is not a file);
then get filenames (you can filter by extension with the arguments of Dir, just as you would in DOS).
Finally, under OnClick and OnDoubleClick of the listbox, you must interpret the listbox default property (Item), check for "->" and use ChDir to change directory and repopulate, or you'll have your file selected.
The write up is sooooooo much more complicated than the code... trust me.
Do you mean VBA for Microsoft Office or just general VBA?
In Office, Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogOpen).
Otherwise, look at the Win32 API function SHBrowseForFolder (in shell32.dll). You can import it for use into VBA using the Declare Function keywords.
There is not direct VBA function for that. You can decide to combine a form (Access form, or a generic microsoft form) with 2 controls: (1) text box (2) browse button (which will finally use the fileDialog command or a windows API).
Perhaps the browse for folder API from the Microsoft MVPs site would suit:
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0002.htm
It uses SHBrowseForFolder mentioned by fwzgekg, and does not return a file dialog, it returns a browsable list of folders.
Is this what you want?
FilePath = Application.GetOpenFilename
