The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Lotus Notes 8.5 - Check for unread messages/documents

Asked by newuser in Lotus Notes

Tags: Lotus Notes 8.5

Hi

I am a newbie to Lotus Notes but have been given the task of retreving unread documents from Lotus Domino server. I have Domino Server 8.5 installed in one machine and the client on my machine. Iam writing a VB program to create a session and get into the Inbox folder. I want to get the documents that are not readfrom Inbox. However, I am not able to do so!!

I see from the IBM info center, that there is a method on the NotesDatabase class called getAllUnreadDocuments that satisifes my criteria. However when I use it in the program, I get the error "Property or method not supported". Does it mean that the Lotus Class that Iam referring to is wrong? Or is there any other way to access unread documents?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

             Dim session As Domino.NotesSession
    Dim Maildb As Domino.NotesDatabase
    Dim MailDoc As Domino.NotesDocument
    Dim dir As Domino.NotesDbDirectory
    
    Set session = New Domino.NotesSession
    Call session.Initialize(<password>)
    
    Set dir = session.GetDbDirectory(<machine name>)
    Set Maildb = dir.OpenDatabase(<nsf file>)
    set Inboxfolder = Maildb.GetView("$Inbox")
    
    Dim totalmsgscount As Integer
    totalmsgscount = Inboxfolder.AllEntries.Count
    
    Dim unreadmsgcollxn As domino.NotesNoteCollection
    Set unreadmsgcollxn = Maildb.db.GetAllUnreadDocuments() 'I get the error as "Object does not support this property or method"
