Lotus Notes: Agents - Error "Query is not understandable"
Hello,
I have a lotus Notes 8.5 agent that I right click on and choose to run, however it's returning an error window that says "Query is not understandable" Can one of you experts take a look at it and let me know why it's telling me that?
Basically, what this script is suppose to do is go out and search the subject line for key words. Presently, it's coded to search just "UPPERCASE" however, this isn't always the case ase those keywords are sometimes in "lowercase" as well. Inevitably, for those emails it finds with these keywords in the subject line I'd like to redirect those emails to a folder called TestSearch....is any of this possible ( - :
Summary of Request:
*************************
- Find out why it's giving me that error code.
- Add code that will re-direct what it finds to a folder of my choosing. i.e. "TestSearch" folder.
- Search subject line and body of email for keywords that are both in lowercase and
UPPERCASE.
A million thanks! I know it's a very difficult question but wanted to try and ask it anyway....you never know. ( - :

Haven't tried it.
I've used the other notation for numerous comples searches (nested ANDs and ORs) though, always including quotes (provided that the field is text). You may be right, but I like things to be clear. ;-)
A db.search is a good alternative, but like you said: if you don't need it too often (and possibly up to a certain db size).

Hey there CRAK,
Thanks for the suggestion. Went with your code, unfortunately when I right click on the agent and choose "Run" i'm getting this error: "Object variable not set" I'll click OK, then it displays a window labeled "Agent Log" which states:
Started running agent "TESTSEARCH" on 3/3/2010 12:54:28 PM
Running on all documents in database: 1264 total
Found 1264 documents(s) that match search criteria
Ran LotusScript code
Done running agent "TESTSEARCH" on 3/3/2010 12:54:49 PM
I checked the "TESTSEARCH" folder that created however do not see these emails in there for some reason. With the exception of the "Object variable not set" error it appears as if the code is running.

Is your database full-text indexed?
ASKER
Hi there Sjef - That's a good question, how would one know this exactly?
ASKER
I go to File>Properties>Choose Database in the drop-down at the top, then click on the "Design" tab. I see the checkbox for "Include in multi-database indexing" is unchecked. In the "Full Text" tab the settings are as such:
Update frequency (servers only) set to: "Immediate"
Index settings:
*****************
Case sensitivity: OFF
Index breaks: Words Only
Index Attachments: OFF
Index Encrypted Fields: ON
I assume this is what your asking?

Okay, pity... ;-)
Did you try to run the code in the debugger?

In Notes, how can I get it into debug mode to run this code?
If the error comes from my code, it probably hasn't found any matching documents. In that case coll is empty and coll.count=0.
Please try this modification:
If Coll.Count>0 then
Call coll.PutAllInFolder("Folde
End if

File > Tools > Debug Lotusscript (in R7) to enable/disable the debugger. You may also have a smarticon ready to do that!

Still getting that "Object variable not set" error when right clicking on agent and choosing "Run" in Agent view.... It's being stubborn with us it appears. ( - :
Here are the Agent Properties

Ah, that's it:
s Is now only declared, not initialised.
Before you assign db, add following line:
Set s = New NotesSession

Yep that was it CRAK it works fine now. One question is it copying the emails it finds or moving the emails it finds, just curious?
Neither. It links the mails to the folder. A mail (document) can be in multiple folders.
ASKER
Great input, thank you!
If that's too 'easy', I'd use db.Search if the query has to be executed at most once per day. I'd search with a formula that contains @Matches or @Like.
@CRAK: ever tried this:
qry = {Field subject = ("*Request*" | "*End*" | "*Start*" | "*Begin*" | "*Cancelled*" | "*Notify*")}
or
qry = {Field subject contains (Request | End | Start | Begin | Cancelled | Notify)}
And AFAIK, double-quotes are meaningless in an FT-query, and the asterisk at the start probably won't work.
