LotusScript Classes Tutorial
Welcome to LotusScript® and Domino®. "LotusScript Classes Tutorial" consists of three lessons designed to introduce you to using the LotusScript language in Domino. Each lesson includes:
- A series of steps that help you create and test a working script
- A line-by-line explanation of the script
- A challenge, to use what you have just learned
- One possible solution to the challenge
Each lesson assumes that you have some experience with Domino application development, and that you have completed the previous lesson.

Each lesson also uses a sample discussion database, which you should create now:
- Open Domino Designer.
If you are in the Notes® client,
do this by clicking the Domino Designer
icon on the bookmark bar.
- Choose File - Database - New.
- For the server, use Local.
- Enter the title as "Learning LotusScript."
- Leave the file name as "Learning LotusScript.nsf."
- If you see a list of templates, go to the next step. If you don't see a list of templates, select Template Server and a server that contains the templates.
- Select the "Discussion - Notes & Web (R5.0)" template.
- Deselect "Inherit future design changes."
- Click OK.
The new database should appear in the Design pane along with a list of design categories. The database's design elements such as the individual forms and views are in the Work pane. You are ready to begin Lesson 1.
