Force a DB to open fully before control is returned to the Notes client

Referencing SPR # PALT7THML2: OpenDatabase method of the UIWorkspace class so that when you are opening a DB in the UI, you can make sure that it is fully opened before proceeding so that future code does not fail because it is taking the DB too long to open in the UI.


Would like to have the ability to add an additional parameter to the NotesSession OpenDatabase method that would force the DB to open completely before control is returned to the calling agent. This will allow to make sure that the DB is opened with no issues before proceeding with the rest of the Lotus Script. This is more of an issue in the mail8 and mail8.5 mail templates and V9 and V10 as well if we proceed with the script while a mail file is opening and run into a dialog box, this will cause the mail file to stop opening with the No mail Service error up.
