Defining global variables and subprograms
Creating an additional script in LotusScript
A number of scripts, such as Initialize, Terminate, and Click, are automatically defined as events for the current Domino object. You select them from the Info List. You can create additional scripts and other block structures as shown in the following table. When a new script is added, it appears on the Objects tab.
Completing a LotusScript block statement automatically
For LotusScript the following block structures are automatically terminated and the insertion point is placed in a new, indented line within the block structure.
Completing a LotusScript %directive automatically
If a script contains a %Rem directive without a matching %End rem directive, LotusScript inserts a new line containing %End rem immediately below the %Rem directive when the Script area is closed or saved, or when a different object or script is selected.
Compiling LotusScript
Compilation takes place in two phases:
Importing and exporting LotusScript
You can copy text from any file into the current LotusScript event or object. Click anywhere in the script area then use the File - Import menu command to choose a file. Files with an LSS extension are displayed by default. To see other file types, enter *.* in the File name box. Click Import. If the file you want to import has a LotusScript object with the same name as the current object, the LotusScript Import Options dialog box is displayed. Choose Yes to replace the existing script with the imported script.
