When I click on the priority number in the bibliographic data I get a message telling me "No documents available for priority number". Is it possible to see the priority applications and if so how do I do this?
Thank you

There are a number of reasons why a priority document may not be available in Espacenet.
The reasons could be:
- we have simple not received the priority document from the filing office
- the priority document was only a provisional number and not a "real" publication
- the application was removed before publication
- number format issues
and many more.
If you post an example priority number, we can check.
