About recently edited documents<br />

<strong>Domino</strong>.<strong>Doc</strong> retains a list of the last five documents that you have modified.<br />

You can view recently edited lists <strong>from</strong> any <strong>Domino</strong>.<strong>Doc</strong> user interface. If<br />

the list contains the document you are seeking you can open it directly by<br />

selecting it in the list.<br />

When you access a recently edited list in the <strong>Domino</strong>.<strong>Doc</strong> library, you see<br />

only your own documents, while Administrators see all recently edited<br />

items in the list.<br />

Note A document that has been deleted may still appear in the list.<br />

About Checking Out a <strong>Doc</strong>ument<br />

The <strong>Domino</strong>.<strong>Doc</strong> check-in and check-out features help ensure document<br />

integrity. Based on document security, any author or editor can check out a<br />

document. When this happens, <strong>Domino</strong>.<strong>Doc</strong> releases the document to the<br />

user and prevents other authors and editors <strong>from</strong> checking out the same<br />

document until that document has been checked back in. (Other authors,<br />

editors, and readers of the document can still view the document while it is<br />

checked out, they just can’t modify it.) This assures that users are viewing<br />

and making decisions on the most current released information instead of a<br />

work in process.<br />

You can check documents out of the <strong>Domino</strong>.<strong>Doc</strong> library through any of the<br />

<strong>Domino</strong>.<strong>Doc</strong> user interfaces.<br />

<strong>Doc</strong>uments that are in a review or approval cycle, however, cannot be<br />

checked out.<br />

Note You can check out a new document immediately using File - Import,<br />

an exception to usual check-out functionality. When you make an edit<br />

request on a document, a check-out request is transparently initiated.<br />

When you try to check out a document, several things can happen depending<br />

on how your System Administrator configured the file cabinet replica,<br />

and whether or not you are working in the master file cabinet.<br />

If you are working in the master file cabinet, or if you can connect to it you<br />

can check out the document immediately. This locks the document so that<br />

other editors cannot modify it, and it creates a working copy of the<br />

document for editing.<br />
