Creates a new document filling in the Body rich text field with values based on the current document.

Note This @command is new with Release 6.

Syntax

@Command([ComposeWithReference]; server : database ; form ; flags)

Parameters

server : database

Text list. The name of the server and database where you want to create the document. Null for server means the local Domino or Notes directory; must be null on the Web. Null for server and database means the current database. The new document must be in the same database as the current document if you want the new document to be a response document.

Text. The name of the form you want to use when creating the new document. This form must contain a rich text or rich text lite field named "Body." This form must be a response form if you want the new document to be a response document.

Number. Optional. One or more of the following reference attributes. Combine attributes by adding them. Defaults to flags 3 plus 4. You must supply this parameter in Web applications.
• 0 -- includes Body in a collapsible section (flags 3 plus 4, the default). Cannot be combined with other flags. Does not work on Web.
• 1 -- Includes a reference to the main document. Cannot be combined with other flags. Does not work on Web.
• 2 -- Includes no history. Cannot be combined with other flags.
• 3 -- Includes the Body of the main document. Can be combined with the flags that follow.
• 4 -- Puts the Body of the main document in a collapsible section. Does not work on Web.
• 8 -- Includes Body as an Internet-style copy of the main document, with a "So-and-so wrote on ..." header and each line prefixed by a greater-than sign. Requires flag value 2. Implicitly applies flag 16. Does not work on Web.
• 16 -- Removes attachments, images, and other large objects from the reference copy, replacing them (except on the Web) with text statements in brackets.
• 32 -- Where the database containing the current document has a $ForwardSep subform (as exists in the Release 6 mail template), prefixes the reference copy with a forward separator. Does not work on Web.

A document must be open or selected in a view to use this command.

The new document is a response to the current document if the two documents are in the same database and the specified form is a response form.

If this command is used in a view action, the form formula of the view will override the form specified in the @command. To avoid this problem add the following line to the form formula of the view:

@If(@IsNewDoc; @Return(Form); "")

For information about form formulas, see "Form Formulas" in "Programming Overview."
