Hi, there! I have an Lotus Domino 5 database that tracks all the projects in our finance department. All the documents are entered through "Input Form". There is a field "Priority", which is numeric editable field that indicates the priority of each project. Currently the database has hundreds of projects. Sometimes User needs to insert some urgent projects. So, each time they have to manually re-number the priority no. Any way to do this automatically? I was thinking to use @dblookup and change field "Priority" to computed field. However, sometimes user wants to swap the priority between two projects. e.g Project x has priority 3, Project Y has priority 5. They need to change Project x to priority 5 and Project Y to priority 3. It seems that I can't make field "Priority" to a computed field. Any suggestions? Thanks a bunch in advance.
