Lotus Domino Designer 8 Help - Examples: @ThisName

FORMULA LANGUAGE

Examples: @ThisName
1. Assume a form has fields named Total_1, Quantity_1, Cost_1, Total_2, Quantity_2, Cost_2, and so on. The Total fields are computed using the following formula for the value. The same formula can be used in every Total field.

Suffix := @Right(@ThisName; "_"); QuantityFld := "Quantity_" + Suffix; CostFld := "Cost_" + Suffix; @GetField(QuantityFld) * @GetField(CostFld)

2. This formula makes it easier for a designer to check code on a form that may have several debugging @Prompt functions in several different fields because it identifies which field value is being displayed:

result := @Round(2.66); @Prompt([Ok];@ThisName;@Text(result)); result + 2

This example returns 3 in the "roundNumber" dialog box and 5 in the roundNumber field when the form displays.
