Some documents with web bookmarks appear in a Notes view. How do you open a bookmarked page bypassing the opening of the corresponding Notes document?
Two solutions follow: one uses Notes magic, and the other the InViewEdit event.
Notes magic
- Create a Dummy form, used for doing nothing (it sounds weird but works)
- Dummy: for preventing document creation, it should have a field [SaveOptions]=0 (text /computed for display)
- Dummy: for preventing form opening, it shoud have a sentence Continue = False in the QueryOpen script
- View: for inhibiting the default behaviour, in the FormFormula object write “Dummy”
- View: put the formula @UrlOpen( Bookmark ) into the QueryOpenDocument formula
now, if you double click the Bookmark document, the page (just it) appears in a new window

InViewEdit event
Something special happens if an editable column shows a value as an icon: The SAVE_REQUEST type of the InViewEdit event is triggered as soon as the user clicks on the icon.
