How do I extract who signed a controlled access section in Lotus Notes?

Question

I would like to export the contents of a Lotus Notes database to XML. In the resulting file I would like to see who had signed a particular controlled access section. I know that the digital signatures are not exported. All I need to know is who signed the section and when did he/she do it.

In what way can I use the DXL Exporter to export the name and date of who signed the section? What do I look for?

Answer 1

If a Notes document is signed, the DXL exporter puts the name of the signer in the <wassignedby> tag and puts sign="true" on all <item> tags that are signed.

I haven't found a way to find the date of the signature. It might be possible to look it up using the UNID of the document and checking LastModified property of the $Signature note item.
