Download (11.5k) VB source here!

Shows how to interface with LotusNotes Mail using SMI/VIM from VB32 bit. I searched high and low for this information last year and finally figured it out myself. I have only tested this on Japanese Lotus Notes, so if you experience any problems, please let me know.

*NEW* Reports of versions tested on (by users) as of 02/24/99:

"I downloaded your vb app and ran in using Notes 4.5.  It worked."  - United States

"So far, the code works great in the English version of Notes.  I think we
have the latest version of 4.0. Thanks for the good code, runs smooth, and it is easy to follow."

"I'm using Lotus Notes 4.12 French" - France

"Just wanted to say Thanks. Your homepage said that you wanted to hear from others that got your example to work on other version of Lotus Notes. Well, it worked flawlessly on a United States version of Lotus Notes
version 4.5.2 dated June 26, 1997."
