Ways to Create Response Document

There are 3 ways to create a response document. Each way is in different language. In all the cases both documents remain in/must be in the same database. This is one of the interview question I was asked once.

1 > In Formula Language:
a. @Command([ComposeWithReference]; server : database; form; flags)
- form is the name of the form used to create the response document with and this form must have a rich text field with name as Body.
- This command is called usually from a form action or view action.
- So that it takes the reference of the currently open document or the selected document in the view.

2 > In Java:
a. public void makeResponse(Document doc) throws NotesException
i.e. responseDoc.makeResponse(parentDoc);

3 > In LotusScript:
a. Call responseDocument.MakeResponse( parentDocument )
