Editing a document from Notes
100 Domino.Doc User Guide
After finding, opening and reading a document, you may want to edit it. A
document must be checked out for editing, and then checked back in. At
that time, you can choose to replace the original or create a new one. If you
find a document and choose Edit Document, it will automatically be
checked out for you (if not already checked out).
Procedure
If you checked out the document from within your ODMA-enabled application,
it is already open; skip to step 3.
To check out and edit the document, perform the following steps:
1. Click Edit Document.
The application associated with the document launches and opens your
document for editing.
Note You must have the application associated with the document
installed in order to view and edit the document. If there is no
application associated with the document file type, the Open With
dialog box will display and prompt you to choose the program you
want to use.
2. Make your changes and save them.
3. When you have finished making your changes, close the document.
The Check In dialog box displays.
4. Do one of the following:
• Choose “Yes” for the Check In? option if you want to check the
document in now.
• Choose “No” for the Check In? option if you want to check the
document in later.
5. If you choose to check the document in now, select a Check In Option.
6. (Optional) Enter a description of your changes.
7. Click OK.
Your changes will be applied to all replicas of this file cabinet when replication
occurs.
