The author summarizes some common issues of Notes development and management, I hope to help everyone. Q: How to compress my Notes workbench when the hard disk space is not enough? A: Since the Notes database is a typical document database, it will take up a larger hard disk space after long-term use, and we need to compress these databases often. Common compression methods are: 1. Right-click any worktable page and select WorkTet Attributes. 2. Select the second property button in the "Workbench" Properties box and click the Compression button to implement compression.
Q: How do you save it as a template for your own database to use it later? A: If a database has been developed or changed, we usually want to save its structure for future development. This approach not only saves time, but also ensures consistency between the application. We use the following steps to save a database as template: 1. Select "New Copy of the File Database". 2. In the Copy Database dialog, enter a server, title, and file name, where the file extension is NTF. 3. Select the Database Design check box and save it as a database. 4. Click the "OK" button to generate a database template.
Q: When debugging the Lotus Domino program, often trigger the QNC.exe program and exit Notes, how to solve it? A: When debugging the Lotus Domino / Notes program, due to the problem of programming, we often trigger the QNC.exe program and prompt the error. In fact, Qnc.exe performs purposes just notes memory protection measures, and does not necessarily have errors in the program itself. For ease of debugging, we can type qnc _u in the Lotus Domino command window to suspend run. If you want to recover, you can load it with the QNC_i command.
Q: After the server reloads, how to reconnect to a new server for a machine that has installed the Notes client? A: First you need to generate a new user ID file with the newly built server and delete the original ID file. In order to reinstall Notes on the client, we need to reset the client as follows: 1. Remove Desktop.dsk, log.nsf and names.nsf files. 2. Edit the Notes.ini file in the text editor, keep the top six lines in this file, the rest of the content, save the Notes.ini file and exit. When you double-click the Notes icon again, the Notes system automatically performs the installer, you only need to connect to the new server with a new user ID file.
Q: How can I run Notes again when I use it? A: Usually NOTES is abnormal exit, the system cannot run Notes again. At this time, the common method is to restart your computer and run Notes. In fact, we can also start NOTEs immediately without restarting your computer, let us manually kill a process nhldaemn.exe left in memory due to Notes exceptions, and then we can start Notes again.
Q: How to hide the Lotus itself in the development of the Lotus Notes application system?

Q: When the server starts, the Notes display message says "Not Notes.ini file", how to solve it? A: If you run the Windows version of Notes server software, use the writepad to display and edit the autuexec.bat file, add the directory where the Notes.ini file is located in the Path statement, and restart the machine. Q: How to change the window title text when developing a Lotus Notes application system? A: In order to make the developed Lotus Notes application system more commercial, we need to change the Notes window title strip text. We can open the Notes.ini file in the text editor, plus a row code: window_title = string. String is the window title text we need. Q: Database's documentation often creates a copy and saving conflict, how to solve? A: "Copy and Save Conflict" is due to two or more users to modify the same document, or multiple users are different from the same document The copy is modified and copied when copying. For public databases, you can avoid them by using views as "sharing for the first time as private". In addition, the "Merge Copy Conflict" property selected for the selected form can combine modifications to different domains of the same document into the same document to avoid copying conflicts, but if it is a modification of the same domain, there will still be conflict documents.
Q: How to get the time of the Domino (server)? A: When you need to get the server time, create a new document on the server, get the creation time of this document, pay attention to this new text document.
