code to try convert the mime to rich text

This code works perfectly in a Notes 6.5 client. It does a conversion on the mime and makes it a true Notes rich text field. The formatting changes a bit due to the conversion but it is still better than plain text with no formatting.

The same bit of code when run on a Notes 8.5 client results in an empty Body field.

Sub Initialize
Dim session As NotesSession
Dim db As NotesDatabase
Dim dc As NotesDocumentCollection
Dim doc As NotesDocument
Dim body As NotesRichTextItem
Dim item As NotesItem

Set session = New NotesSession
Set db = session.CurrentDatabase
Set dc = db.UnprocessedDocuments
Set doc = dc.GetFirstDocument

While Not doc Is Nothing
Call doc.Computewithform(False, False)
Call doc.Save(True, False)

Set item = doc.Getfirstitem("$NoteHasNativeMime")
If Not item Is Nothing Then
Call item.Remove()
End If
Set item = doc.Getfirstitem("$MIMETrack")
If Not item Is Nothing Then
Call item.Remove()
End If
Set item = doc.Getfirstitem("MIME_Version")
If Not item Is Nothing Then
Call item.Remove()
End If
Call doc.Save(True, False)

doc.Title = "Convert Mime agent B (Notes version " + session.Notesversion + ")"

Set body = doc.Getfirstitem("Body")
Call body.Appendtext(" ")
Call doc.Save(True, False)

Set doc = dc.GetNextDocument(doc)
Wend
End Sub
