Use for the column property visible a script statement like: @IsMember("[DocumentEditor]", context.getUser().getRoles().toArray())

if your datasource for the table contains response documents you can make it visible like main documents. If you want to change the content against the main documents use document.isResponse()

And where is that property in DATA View control (extension library), not viewPanel control. Can you show me in this picture?

I overlooked that you ask for a extension dataTable. I don´t work with that. Sorry.

I have used the dataview from the extension Library and really have not been very happy with the results. I have been working through a process of developing a repeat control 'view' for a number of reasons.

1. if you do a FTSearch before coming into the dataView you have no control of the order of the documents and the categorization is lost.

2. want to do something like you want on a row by row basis easy in a repeat control, not so much in the dataView. for example if the current user has Edit rights to the document open the document in one Xpage, if not use a different one.

3. Much greater control over the look and feel of the output.

downside - takes more time to build.

There is no one design that fits all situations but I'm leaning strongly toward the repeat to maintain look and feel across the application.

Use readers/authors fields on the documents to hide the "rows" in the data control. I have sucessfully used roles to hide columns in the dataview control but not rows.

Yaeh Elijah, i did it that way, and now it works good. But it's a pity that dataView control has such a limitation that you practicly can't maniuplate it on a row basis.

Thanks for the input!
