Usage

This method does a hard deletion even if "Allow soft deletions" is enabled. See remove to do a soft deletion.

If you access a NotesDocument object through the Document property of NotesUIDocument, you can't delete the back-end document. If you could, the UI rendition would have no basis. You must access the document strictly through the back-end.

A deleted document cannot be used as a basis for navigation in a view or a document collection.

You cannot use the remove method on a Document object returned by the DocumentContext property.
