As far as I know, the only way to get this information is with the NSFItemQueryEx call in the Notes C API.

Try this, @Elements($Revisions)

Does that still work if your number of revisions exceeds the number actually? We have a database in which some documents have over 100 revisions and not every date displays when looking at properties, so I assume not all are stored. – David Navarre Jun 13 '12 at 20:32
There is a high default limit for entries in $Revisions, but it can be lowered. See here http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/dominowiki.nsf/dx/limit-size-of-updatedby-and-revisions-fields – Richard Schwartz Jun 13 '12 at 22:22

So, @Elements($Revisions) only works if the number of revisions does not exceed the limit. Raising the limit results in more data being saved -- one of our applications has many documents with over 140 revisions since the "refresh all documents" in a particular view once a week (which I know is just ridiculous, btw). We keep only 8, so disk space is not compromised.... – David Navarre Jun 19 '12 at 15:04
