| Audience: | The target audience for Using LotusScript® in IBM® Lotus® Domino® 7 Applications is application developers who will be using LotusScript in their Domino applications. |
|
|
| Description: | Students will learn the techniques of programming in LotusScript while they learn to access and work with objects in the Domino Object Model. This workshop starts by introducing students to the LotusScript language. Students learn to retrieve database properties, use NotesDatabase methods, and navigate the Document Object Model to access ACL classes. The course continuously reinforces how to navigate the Document Object Model as students learn to work with front-end and back-end classes. Students are introduced to error checking and the LotusScript debugger early in the course so that they use it throughout the course. |

| Objectives: | Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Write LotusScript code that navigates the Domino Object Model and retrieves object data.
- Write LotusScript code that modifies and adds data in Domino applications.
- Select the best mechanism for executing LotusScript code.
- Use the LotusScript debugger and error trapping to debug code.
- Use Script Libraries to re-use code efficiently
