Frameset "MyFrame" Does Not Exist

OK...I created a database with the Launch option of 'Open Designated Frameset'. The left pane is a menu, the right frame contains the content. No problem there.

When accessed from your Lotus Notes Workspace, everything works great. You can open up any form you wish, submit it, and then get redirected back to the 'Designated Frameset'.

Here's the catch. When you open the database from a database link in a Lotus Note e-mail, you encounter a problem. The database opens up with the appropriate frameset, you can select the desired form, and then successfully fill out and submit the form. However, when the redirect action happens, the following error is received:

"Frameset "MasterFrame" Does Not Exist"

Clearly, this has something to do with the database or the frameset going out of scope.

The redirect formula upon form submit looks like this:
@Command([CloseWindow]);@Command([OpenFrameset];"MasterFrame"));@StatusBar("Save unsuccessful"))

How can I tell the application that "This is the database you are in."? This should help it find the FrameSet, right?
 
I suspect that your CloseWindow command is the source of the problem.
When you use the form in the db, you are in the db and you stay there, so the focus is still on the db.
However, when you use the email link, you have only one window open on the db. When the CloseWindow command executes, the focus on the db is lost and the code finds itself either in the mail or nowhere, so to speak. Thus, the missing frameset message.

Remove the CloseWindow command, I suspect that that will solve your email link issue.

Pascal.

I've got nothing to hide, and I'd very much like to keep that away from prying eyes.
