SPR # WMAS53LV28Fixed in 6.0.1 release



Product Area: Client Technical Area: Editor Platform: Cross Platform

SPR# WMAS53LV28 - Hotspot Links are no longer broken after using the "Copy into New Memo" action.

Technote Number: 1099855

Problem:
This issue was reported to Lotus Software Quality Engineering and was addressed
in Notes 6.0.1 Client. The fix repairs the 'Copy Into' action itself but does
NOT fix the existing damaged links; the links must be re-created with a 6.0.1
(or later) Client in order to function. There are no current plans to fix the
'Copy Into' action in the Notes R5 codestream.

Excerpt from the Lotus Notes and Domino Release 6.0.1 MR fix list (available at
http://www.lotus.com/ldd):

Editor
SPR# WMAS53LV28 - Hotspot Links are no longer broken after using the "Copy into
New Memo" action.

Workaround : Use a regular doclink instead of a text hotspot link.

Steps to reproduce problem in a standard R5 mail file:
1. Create a document in a database such as your mail file.
2. Select Edit --> Create --> Doclink.
3. Create a new memo.
4. Type some text in the new memo such as "New Doc".
5. Highlight the text and select Create --> Hotspot --> Link Hotspot.
6. Send the memo to yourself.
7. Once the message is received, select Actions --> Copy Into --> New Memo.
8. Send the memo to yourself.
9. Open the document and click the link. The error occurs.
