What is Lotusscript®?

Lotusscript® is a programming language that is very similar to Basic. It can be used in Lotus Notes or as an agent on the Domino server. Lotusscript® comes with Lotus Notes Release 4, Word Pro, freelance or access. The language must work within one of these programs to work. It is generally used to extend the existing features of other programs or their integration with other software and can also be useful for accessing the databases and control of the user interface. Computers should be told how to respond in all situations, and the programming language is a method used to communicate with a computer. Behind any small tool or application you can find on your computer, there are lines of the coded language that control their operation. Lotusscript® is one such language and anyone who learns to "talk" in that Language can program tools or applications.

Lotusscript® is often compared with basic, which is another programming language that can be considered as a motherLotusscript®. There are some differences between these two, the most obvious is that the Visual Basic package provides the user's ability to control the user interface and Lotusscript® relies on the Lotos notes or another user interface program.

scripts are key components of applications created in Lotus Notes and the Lotusscript® language is used to create them. Scripts are collections of commands that tell the program what to do when there is a certain event. For example, if the user has created a button that performs the "convert" function from Celsius to Fahrenheit, the left click on this button must be associated with the work of the equivalent TempyaTure in Fahrenheit. In Lotusscript®, these actions must be compatible with the host program and the host program can even automate parts of the scripting process for easy use.

Programs

consist ofFrom subroutities, which are functions, commands and variables that control its operation. Using Lotusscript® does not mean that the user must create these functions himself, only assemble pre -created subroutines to perform the required function. As a result, programming languages ​​are much easier - more as a puzzle assembly than a picture painting from zero.
