Those of you who have heard him speak at other venues will know you have a treat in store. And Improve Your LotusScript! Joshua Tennent, MentalNotesInc Have you ever inherited broken code from somebody else that was unreadable, unmaintainable, and would be better off if you just rewrote the whole thing from scratch? This session will demonstrate ways to improve your LotusScript and show how you can make your code more maintainable, re-usable, more efficient and with fewer bugs. There will be extensive code examples demonstrating advanced LotusScript techniques in conjunction with the web, file access, and other aspects of Lotus Notes.
