.NET and Lotus Notes Interop

Question

I\'ve Lotus Notes database file (.nsf) at some location, let\'s say: http://intranet.mycompany.com/somewhere/data.nsf

Is it possible in any way to read from that locatio

Answer 1

My humble opinion for those who face such a task would be not to bother with direct access to LN data (at least i haven't heard of any decent C# dev for Lotus Notes), but consider the following:

1) dump LN data into a relational database (IBM DB2, MS SQL Server etc.) with the help of LEI (Lotus Enterprise Integeration) or a custom tool, where you can use it any way you want, say in ORM for ASP.NET, even bi-directional. This makes sense when you migrate or have a schedule for data exchange.

2) for lesser amount of data with sporadic access i'd develop a WebService or some in the Lotus Notes database.
