Add a NEW equivalent methode to NotesDocument class in LotusScript to add values to an already existing item. notesDocument.AppendItemValue has the problem to add new items with an other sequence number. In general, ReplaceItemValue is favored over AppendItemValue. If an item of the same name already exists in a document, AppendItemValue creates a second item of the same name, and the duplicate items are not accessible except through a work-around. If you are creating a new document, AppendItemValue is safe.

The behavior of AppendItemValue has been the same for 15 years, and there are programs that depend on it. I would vote for a new method, but not a change to the existing method.

I completely agree with @1 here. Although the AppendItemValue method is illogical at best, it is still used, and needs to remain unchanged.

Then add a methods AppendValueToItem and AppendValueToItemUnique. I think it will be useful!

Then you would also want InsertItemValueAtStart (or PrependItemValue) and replaceitemvalueatposition. Where does it end.
What's wrong with:
Call doc.ReplaceItemValue("item", ArrayAppend(doc.getitemvalue("item"), value))
I would rather see more methods for the item class itself to modify it's values.
So leave NotesDocument class as is for modifying items.
