Chapter 2, "The Release 6 Object Store," described views as the means by which documents are listed and presented for access in a Domino database. This chapter explores this important design element in depth. All databases have at least one view. When a new database is created, a default untitled view is also created, containing a single column that displays the document number in the view. In and of itself, this default view is not very useful. The standard Outline view lists documents in a tabular format similar in appearance to a spreadsheet or a database browse listing. The Calendar view displays date-oriented documents, such as meetings and appointments, in a calendar format. As a developer, you determine what documents appear in each view and what each view column displays.
