Lotus Notes uses VBA as the Scripting language (yes that's right--VBA, just like in Excel, or Access).  Hence you can write NotesScript (which I belive is the name that LOTUS uses for the Scripting tool - but it IS LICENSED VBA from Microsoft), and then you can use either DAO or ADO to connect to the Access database, in your script code.
