Problem:
Using LotusScript, how can you (a database designer) prevent a user from opening a database
view?

Solution:
The NotesUIView QueryOpen event has a continue argument that, when set to the Boolean value
"False," prevents users from opening the view. Therefore, you can control access to a view by
placing, in the view's QueryOpen event, a script that first determines if the user should be
able to access the view and then sets, accordingly, the event's continue argument to either
"True" or "False."
