Any advice that I can create a drop-down like in-browser inside my notes? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

Use Domino Designer to edit the No column. You need to select the "Show twistie ..." setting as described here.
Also, you may want to automatically collapse the view entries when the user opens the database. To do that, edit the view properties and select "Collapse all when database is first opened".

Sharepoint Document list edit

Is there anyway to edit a column in a document library? directly from the list view? So in Review Completed column below, just toggle the value rather than clicking on edit?
I noticed this is a modern page, you may have a try Field Customizer extension.

XPages newbie - view columns in discussion database

I'm a traditional domino developer just beginning XPages. I'm working on modifying the standard 8.5.3 Domino discussion database. I've added some fields on the Main Topic and response forms, one called category. I've added a categorised column in the ($xpAllDocuments) view to the left of "Topic" for the category field. This works fine in Notes as you'd expect, but when the view is rendered in the All Documents xpage, the category twiste displays without any label. I'm not sure how to modify the column data for the xpage, as it seems to use a repeat? instead of a view?
Any help greatly appreciated, and apologies for the presumably basic enquiry!
You have to add the categories column to custom control allDocumentsView which renders the view for browser.
How to find out where to set the new categorized column? A good way is to look at the "All properties" of a certain element. For that, open the Source pane of custom control allDocumentsView, position cursor on <xe:dataView and look at "All Properties". If you hover over the properties' labels you get a helper window with a short explanation.
In your case, property categoryColumn is what you are looking for. Assuming you added a categorized column Categories to view ($xpAllDocuments) then you would have to put into property categoryColumn:
With that, your source code gets expanded by
<xe:this.categoryColumn>
<xe:viewCategoryColumn
columnName="Categories"
columnTitle="Categories">
</xe:viewCategoryColumn>
</xe:this.categoryColumn>
and you will see the added categorized column in your rendered XPage.
I don't know the discussion template in detail, but when the All Documents Xpage is using a repeat control, then you cannot expect an automatic category expand/collapse feature as in a Notes view.
If you want that, you need a View control on the Xpage.

"Hidden" columns in Sharepoint 2007

I'm trying to make a custom list for inquiries, where users will fill in some information such as "Name", "Reason" etc. When they've finished filling in the information and added the item, the administrator will then go through the item, and fill in some new columns that the user hasn't been able to fill in.
I hope you understand me, otherwise you're more than welcome to ask questions!
With SharePoint designer 2007, you can use the SPSecurityTrimmedControl who enable you to show/hide form field (or site action...).
Syntax :
<SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl PermissionsString="ManageLists" runat="server">
WHAT_YOU_WANT_TO_HIDE_HERE
</SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl>
For the PermissionsString, all values HERE
You'll need to use SharePoint Designer. You will create custom new and edit forms. This way when the user fills in the new form, only certain fields will appear. Then when the administrator edits the item using the edit form, they will have access to more fields.
Please see this link for more information.
Try making a copy of the form you wish to edit by copying and pasting to the same folder. Then click on the web part for the form and the code above will highlight . Look for tags IsVisible and change it from "true" to "false". This will hide the default form. Do not delete the original form.
Click on the web part in the design view then press your right arrow. This will move the cursor to right after the web part but still within the web part zone. Go to the Insert menu, select SharePoint Controls then Custom List form. A small dialog window will appear, select the list name from the first drop down, then select the content type from the second drop down. Finally select which form you want to insert, New, Edit or Display. Click OK. The new form will be displayed under the default form, and you will then see all of the fields in order and you can add or remove as you like.
If one did not want to edit the pages, couldn't one use Jquery to hide the fields? I have done this with SPservices. to check the user credentials if you will and then if matched display the hidden fields... all this is done from a web part...just a thought...I actually learned something great today.. great replies.

How to create an "Add Attachement" column in sharepoint 2010?

Googled and looked here for a while with no answer found so far.
I am currently trying to have a column work similar to the edit button. With the edit button you click the icon and you are redirected to the edit page. I want something the users can click to go straight to the add attachment section. It does not need to be a button, even though it would look nice. We also have designer so that is an option as well.
Any suggestions or link on how I can try to make this work? Any help is appreciated.
Could you not Create another ECB item just like the edit button with the name add attachment
Pass the ID of the item via query string.
Pick this up in c# and work your magic to add an attachment?
This is how to create an ECB menu item

Attachment in Lotus Notes?

I have a document with an attachment.The document is in edit mode but i want to restrict user to edit the attachment.User should be only able to open an attachment and should not be able to edit that attachment or Edit option should remain inactive.I am woking on client based application.If you have idea how to make Edit option inactive, then please share it with me.
Thanks Rupesh
I have not done any notes thick client work in more than a few years, but one way would be to have 2 subforms with the same richtext field. One gets an editable rt-field, and the other gets a computed-when-composed (same field name).
Put the subform in the base form as a computed subform. Base the formula on role, so you either get an editable field or non-editable field based on who you are.
I was thinking you could do this with a controlled section as well, but it's been too long to recall for me. I know the subforms would work.
