Private Calendar Folder - Display issue

11/20/2009 11:43 AM By Keith Strickland

I'm not sure if this is a bug with a calendar or with my thinking, I'm sure it's the latter. So, I turn to you oh gentle reader, to guide me to the proper technique or point out something that I've obviously missed.

So, here's the scenario... I've got a Shared/Private on First Use folder that displays as a calendar. Users pick what they want to show in the calendar which kicks off a script that goes and gets the requested documents and puts them in said folder and then displays the contents of the folder. So far, so good, the script is working as expected. The problem comes in though in the display of said documents, which I'll get to in a second. First, here's the design setup... the first column displays a multi-value field which contains date/times and the column is set to show multiple values as separate entries, which it does. Now, the field that is displayed in the first column for the document in question has a value of "11/17/2009 08:15:00 AM EST";"11/18/2009 12:00:00 PM EST". When viewing the contents of the folder from the designer client the folder shows what it is supposed to (see screen shot #1). However, when viewing the folder from the notes client, instead of 2 entries (one on 11/17/2009 and another on 11/18/2009 which is what you would expect) it is showing 4 entries, 1 on 11/17/2009, 2 on 11/18/2009 and 1 on 11/19/2009 (see screen shot #2). I have verified the UNID and it is in fact the same document and I can't figure out why the calendar display is working this way. So, hopefully someone can point me in the right direction, if you can possibly make sense out of what I just wrote.
