LotusScript for Visual Basic Programmers - IBM Redbooks

Property Description
EmbeddedObjects Read-Write. All the embedded objects, object links,
and file attachments contained in a rich text item.
Note When you use the EmbedObject method of NotesRichTextItem in
Visual Basic using Notes classes through OLE Automation, the argument
type of the method is type number rather than type constant used in
LotusScript.
Type Constant Type Number
EMBED_ATTACHMENT 1454
EMBED_OBJECT 1453
EMBED_OBJECTLINK 1452
Tip If Visual Basic cannot recognize a type constant, you can always use
Message Cstr(TypeConstant) in LotusScript to find out the type number.
NotesSession
The NotesSession class represents the Notes environment of the current
script, providing access to environment variables, address books,
information about the current user, and information about the current
Notes platform and release number.
It contains NotesAgent, NotesDatabase, NotesDbDirectory,
NotesDateTime, NotesLog, and NotesNewsletter. In Notes Release 4.5, it
will contain the NotesInternational and NotesDateRange classes.
Method Description
