Customise ALL the client error messages for Notes
Category
Ok.... Admin people are going to love this.
A few months ago, I presented this tip. It showed how to customise some of the more unhelpful errors on the Lotus Notes clients and make them useful, by replacing the error text that pops up on the client, with something you put in instead. Very very nice.....
This involves using desktop policies to customise the Lotus Notes client error messages. I present this as a tip in the Adminblast presentation that I give at many conferences. Bill and Julian have helped me out in a big way. They have put together a database that calls all the error codes for the client and outputs them into a database, so you can now customise ANY error message... and make it useful. This is release 1, and we have a few improvements in the planning. So to use it...
Download the database file from my resources page. Follow the very simple instructions to output the error code list.
Read Jack Dausmans excellent article on how to easily modify the notes.ini's on clients using a custom button on your toolbar (its very very good).
Pick your error - and customise it.
Consider this our Christmas gift to the administrators, from Bill, Julian and myself.
