Any good hotspot script cheats out there?

[NumaNuma]

I'm looking for any good books or free websites that have examples of hotspot button codes/script for those who are just learning notes development or for those who are not good at advanced script coding. I’m looking for samples of hotspots already created that I can copy and paste into hotspot buttons that I’m creating for now until I get better at creating advanced hotspot buttons that would amaze the email recipient!! =o)

I'm starting to learn how to create advanced hotspot buttons for the Executive Assistants and HR managers who hold a lot of meetings and events where I work. They like the hotspot buttons with different functions added to email notices that are sent out.

Here is an example of one I use at work when the email recipient clicks on the hotspot button. I changed company information for privacy in this post.


choice := @Prompt([OkCancelList] : [NoSort]; "RSVP for Self Defense Classes"; "Please select the appropriate response and press OK. Your response will be sent to Staffname. Thank You."; "Please sign me up for the class on March 10th, 11:00 am - 12:00 pm." ; "Please sign me up for the class on March 10th, 11:00AM- 12:00pm." : "Please sign me up for the class on March 24th, 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm. ");
@MailSend("staffnotesserveraddressgoeshere";"";"";" Self Defense Response";choice;"");
@Prompt([Ok]; " Self Defense Response"; "Your response has been sent to staffname. Thank you.")



I'm also looking for script to add to a hotspot button for a function "add to calendar" when the recipient clicks on it, it will add that event/meeting to their notes calendar as an APPPOINTMENT and will have a reminder pop up a day before the meeting/event.

Thanks for any help!

You could try

http://www.opennft.org

- they have lots and lots of stuff on there, including help for beginners to Lotus Script. Personally I taught myself using only the help files and this site (although mainly just pascal!!).

Working with existing databases (eg Mailfiles) is not in my opinion the best way to learn - firstly you're dealing with massive forms with thousands of complexities built by Lotus, and secondly you could do some real damage!

I recommend starting a new database project (in my experience there's always a new problem to solve with a database somewhere!!) and devoting your time to that, building it up from scratch.

By the way, like the username... Are you a newgrounds fan by any chance?
