LotusScript can access private views by opening the desktop.dsk file.
Being able to do this is useful if there is design change on the private view. Users won't get the new design unless they remove the database icon/bookmark from their desktop and re-add it. However, you can send them a button with LotusScript to open their desktop.dsk and delete the private views so they will get the new view design the next time they use the view.
