build list of names for CopyTo from ACLEntries

[yert33]

LotusScript: trying to build list of recipients to place in the CopyTo field of a memo. I can loop through the ACLEntries and find each Person/Role I desire, but how do I construct the text list for the CopyTo field?

I tried using the NotesItem method AppendToTextList but can't figure out how to Set the item initially (can't call GetFirstItem on an acl entry and GetFirstEntry will, if it works, put the -Default- aclentry in the list which I do not want).

I now there's got to be a simple solution out there - tell me please!

Thanks in advance,
trey

NotesItem can only be Set on a document. Use the following code as example :

dim session as new notessession
dim db as notesdatabase
dim doc as notesdocument
dim item as notesitem

set db = session.currentdatabase
set doc = db.createdocument
set item = new notesitem(doc,"copyto","")

After, you can use the AppendToTextList method to add the names you want.

Check the Developer's Help for the syntax of NotesItem to see why I wrote it like that.

Hope this helps !
