Print a greeting in the status bar

The following code prints a greeting in the status bar when a user enters a database, creates a document at the same time, and prints a goodbye greeting in the status bar when a user exits the database. This can be used by the administrator or developer to track when and who has accessed the database.

1. Place this code in the Postopen event of the Database Script:

   @Command([ToolsRunMacro];"(Salutations)")

2. Create the agent Salutation with Manually from Agent List set. The agent prints the salutations at the bottom of the status bar based on the time of day (either, morning, afternoon, evening or night). Then it gets the name of the user and creates a history document. The form has only two fields, a UserName field and a CreatedOn field.

   Sub Initialize
   
   Dim HistoryDoc As NotesDocument
   Dim user_name As String
   Set session = New NotesSession
   Set db = session.CurrentDatabase
   Set ws = New NotesUIWorkspace
   Set UIdoc = ws.CurrentDocument
   
   user_name = session.CommonUserName
   If Hour(Time) > 0   And Hour(Time)  < 12 Then Print 
   "Good morning " & user_name  & " and welcome back."
   If Hour(Time) > 12  And Hour(Time)  < 17 Then Print 
   "Good afternoon " & user_name  & " and welcome back."
   If Hour(Time) > 17  And Hour(Time)  < 20 Then Print 
   "Good evening  & user_name   & " and welcome back."
   If Hour(Time) > 20  And Hour(Time)  < 23 Then Print 
   "Good night " & user_name  & " and welcome back."
   
   Set HistoryDoc = New NotesDocument(db)
   HistoryDoc.Form = "FM_UserEnterDatabase"
   HistoryDoc.UserName =  user
   HistoryDoc.CreatedOn = Today
   
   Call HistoryDoc.Save(True,False)
   End Sub

3. Place this code in the Queryclose event of the Database Script.

   Dim session As New NotesSession
   Dim user As String
   
   user = session.CommonUserName
   Print "Goodbye " & user  & " and have a nice day."
