Subject: "Object variable not set" error on LotusScript NotesUIWorkspace.CurrentView

Feedback Type: Problem

Product Area: Domino Server

Technical Area: Customization

Platform: Windows 2003 server

Release: 8.5

Reproducible: Always

Hello,

Previously we were using Domino Server 6.5 and Notes 6.5. Right now we are using Domino Server 8.5 and Notes 8.5.

We wanted to do some custom processing on selected email(s) of Note's Inbox. We created a new Toolbar inside Notes and added one button on it. The formula on button's click opens a Page. In Page's postOpen, we have written LotusScript to get selected documents (emails). Following is the LotusScript. Values for variables Server$, FilePath$ and View$ were passed from button's formula to Page.

-------LotusScript-------------------
Dim DocCol As NotesDocumentCollection
Dim WO As New NotesUiWorkspace

'Msgbox "Server " & Server$ 'CN=LotusDev/O=unfccc
'Msgbox "Filepath " & FilePath$ 'mail\ceadmin.nsf
'Msgbox "View " & View$ '($Inbox)

Call WO.OpenDatabase(Server$, FilePath$, View$)

'Following line gives error "Object variable not set"
Set DocCol = WO.CurrentView.Documents
Msgbox "Last line" 'This is not printed
----------------------------

We are getting an error on WO.CurrentView.Documents line.

The same code works on Domino Server 6.5.

Please guide me if things have been changed in Domino server 8.5 or if we are missing something.

Thanks in advance.
