Hi Rajanb,

Enable "Merge replication conflicts" Form property. This property will merge the rplication conflict. But when two or more users edit same field in same document and save at same time, replication conflicts still occur. In this case you have to manually remove the conflicts.

Sorry for interfering...

If the proposed solution doesn't help, you can create some kind of "document locking system" which will work only on single server databases and will allow only one user at a time to edit one and the same document.

We're doing this for a number of clients quite succesfully. Unfortunately I can't provide you with the coding, but I could give you a rough explanation of what needs to be done. But you would need an indept knowledge of Lotus Script.
Download an eval copy of Domino.Doc.


This implements a fairly sophisticated document check in/out control system.

There is scope for multi-replica databases but this is a fairly crude implementation.


Hope this gives you a pointer.

Hi rajanb !

I can answer for you with the example database, but you could increase point for this question. If you agree, please mail to nhannd@br.fpt.vn.

Hi rajanb !  

I've given you hint !!!

Work out yourself.  Dont go for persons who give you the entire code.
You cant improve your skills.

Work man !

(Nhannd !  hope you are a bit disappointed. )

Anyway !

Cheers !
