New methode "GetItemText" in NotesDocument class (Lotusscript) to get item text value.
Currently you have to initalize a NotesItem object to use GetItemText. It should be able to use GetItemText like GetItemValue from NotesDocument object.

textScalar = Cstr(NotesDocument.GetItemValue(ItemName$)(0))
textArray = Evaluate(|@Text(| & ItemName$ & |)|, NotesDocument)
textArray = Evaluate(|@Text(| & ItemName$ & |)|, NotesDocument)

@1: GetItemValue(itemname$)(0) will return only the first value and does not work for NotesRTItem
"textArray = Evaluate(....)" ....
1. is not available in COM/OLE
2. your formula will return an string array
GetItemText should be the same returnvalue as NotesItem.Text methode.
"textArray = Evaluate(....)" ....

GetItemText should be the same returnvalue as NotesItem.Text methode.

@2:
In the header message was nothing about NotesRTItem. There are GetFormattedText, GetUnformattedText, @Abstract, @AbstractSimple.
"1. is not available in COM/OLE"
notesSession.Evaluate(...) must work.
"2. your formula will return an string array"
nothing prevents us from turning it into text using Implode/@Implode :)
If you do, so must then not only the method returns the Text and Numbers, Dates ... but I think such ideas were already here.

@2 Vlad Sh: there is always a workaround available, but why should Lotus not extend script for easy use?

@ Michael
I do not mind. Percentage of implementation of our ideas is very small (ideas so many that will last for a couple of products such as Lotus Notes :) ), so think what is more priority.

If such a method were to be created I would suggest its name should be getItemValueString to match the existing method that is available in both the Java and SSJS languages. I use this method so much when writing SSJS I have previously suggested this as an idea on IdeaJam. I am not holding my breathe that IBM will extend LS anytime soon so I have developed my own class to use that implements this method.
