The strange case of Last Modified dates (continued)

Which meant that we ended up with a code fragment something like this:

Dim AgentLastRan as New NotesDateTime(profile.agentlastran(0))
Dim DocsToProcess as NotesDocumentCollection
Set DocsToProcess = db.Search("@all",AgentLastRan.LSLocalTime,0)

This gave us a collection of all the target documents. The only issue that we then had to face was that the returned collection, was, as ever, unsorted. We were able to work with this, so for us, that was job done. But if you aren't, then one reasonably simple way round it would be to:

  • Create a new folder, making sure that the view that it inherits its design from is sorted correctly.
  • Put the collection into the folder, which will sort it.
  • Read the folder to process the documents, in the sorted order.

These actions too, are reasonably quick -- unless your returned collection is very large, in which case the PutAllInFolder will take a little while. But I think it would be worth it.
