You're welcome.

Check for Lotus Script Help. Unfortunately, this, under Lotus '97, was an optional part of the install. I don't know about Millenium. Additionally, there's the Lotus web site. Also check the type library. What follows is purely my opinion and based totally on Lotus '97 and the versions that preceeded it.

First of all, to me, the term "Lotus Help File" and any variation of it is an oxymoronism. Once you've spent a while trying to dig something out of what they pass off as help, you gain appreciation for the quality of Microsoft's documentation. As far as I'm concerned, I'd never tell anyone to RTFM for a Lotus product, doing so doesn't help much.

Second, the web site is no better.

Third, and I guess I'm spoiled by Microsoft, but trying to find something like the value of a defined constant is next to impossible. The constant is defined by Lotus Script and its actual value isn't documented. Even the type library doesn't expose it.

I'll be of whatever help I can with it, but that may not too much.
George
