Com\Extention library - can't refresh filesite folders content after moving document

Hi All,

I have been trying to create right click functionality that moves documents into a recycle bin folder but I can't get the moved document to disappear after it has been moved from a folder. The only way the folder refreshes is to go to a different folder and navigate back again.

I have tried IManFolder.Refresh() and IManFolder.Contents.Refresh() with no luck.

Code snip:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
rpSelectedNRTDocuments = mContext.Item("SelectedNRTDocuments")

For iDoc = 0 To rpSelectedNRTDocuments.Length - 1
pDocument = rpSelectedNRTDocuments(iDoc)
SelectedIManDocument = pDocument

For iFolder = 1 To SelectedIManDocument.Folders.Count
NRTF = SelectedIManDocument.Folders.Item(iFolder)
NRTF.RemoveDocument(SelectedIManDocument)
Next

pIManDocFolder.AddDocument(SelectedIManDocument)

pIManDocFolder.Documents.Refresh()
pIManDocFolder.Refresh()
Next
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Your code is calling a Refresh action on the IManFolder, which basically means it's refreshing the metadata from the database, but not the client because the IManage API doesn't know anything about the client.

You're apparently developing a FileSite ICommand therefore you can pass a context back to the ICommand which will instruct the integrated application (Outlook) to refresh the folder view

Thanks guido I have been trying to implement:
mContext.Add("IManExt.Refresh",True) and
mContext.Add("RefreshFolderContents",True)
yesterday but I could not get them to work with Desksite. I then tried Filesite and it worked, is this because of a desksite limitation/difference in codeing or does desksite just have a bug in it?

I'm not sure it's a defect. I think it's by design that only FileSite is refreshed.

Either way, you should thing about submitting a bug and/or enhancement request via the Autonomy support site

mlf

Its been awhile since I've tried this in FileSite or DeskSite but do either of these help?

context.Add("RefreshSubFolders", true);
context.Add("RefreshAllFolders", true);

Thanks all for the replys, I'm happy that I have it working correctly for filesite and will see what Autonomy\Interwoven come back with about the Desksite side and post it in this thread.

Thanks again.
