Examples: SetEnvironmentVar method

  1. This script sets the value of the HomeTown environment variable to "Salvador." The following line gets added to the user's notes.ini (or Notes® Preferences) file: $HomeTown=Salvador
    Dim session As New NotesSession
Call session.SetEnvironmentVar( "HomeTown", "Salvador" )
  2. These two form scripts work together to set and retrieve the HomeTown environment variable. The first script places the contents of the HomeTown environment variable into the HomeTown field of a newly created document. Every time the user composes a document with the form, the HomeTown field is automatically filled in with the value of the environment variable. The second script places the contents of the HomeTown field into the HomeTown environment variable whenever the user saves the document.
