protected when a note was modified by a user with Author access and the
database was included in Directory Assistance. The item name was also not a
reserved item name.
Refer to the Upgrade Central site for details on upgrading Notes/Domino.
This issue has been observed in cases where the relative form's design has been
modified from the original Domino Directory template design (pubnames.ntf).
One or more fields which were originally set with Security Option property of
"Must have at least Editor access to use", have either had the property set to
"None" or the field has been removed from the form altogether. Additionally,
the issue may be observed in a new additional form design which was not
included in the template design.
Workaround:
This issue can be avoided if one of the protected fields (see the list below)
from the original Domino Directory template design is added to the form design
with the Security Option property set to "Must have at least Editor access to
use". The field should be added with the correct Type (see list below). In
cases where the field is already present in the form's design then be sure to
enable the Security Property as noted. In either case, the field can be hidden
if desired.
Note: If the issue continues to occur with a form based on a form design from
the Domino Directory template (Pubnames.ntf) then it is suggested that the
form's original design be reinstated to avoid the issue.
The following is a list of the fields that are protected in the Domino
Directory template design. They are listed by Type.
