Saves any changes you have made to a document.

Defined in

NotesDocument

Syntax

flag = notesDocument.Save( force, createResponse [, markRead ] )

Parameters

force

Boolean. If True, the document is saved even if someone else edits and saves the document while the script is running. The last version of the document that was saved wins; the earlier version is discarded.

If False, and someone else edits the document while the script is running, the createResponse argument determines what happens.

Boolean. If True, the current document becomes a response to the original document (this is what the replicator does when there's a replication conflict). If False, the save is canceled. If the force parameter is True, the createResponse parameter has no effect.

Boolean. If True, the document is marked as read on behalf of the current user ID. If False (default), the document is not marked as read.

Note If the database does not track unread marks, all documents are considered read, and this parameter has no effect.

• True indicates that the document was successfully saved
• False indicates that the document was not saved

Avoid using this method in a document returned by NotesUIDocument.Document. Use NotesUIDocument.Save instead. Otherwise, a user who saves in the front-end creates a save conflict.
