i am ASP developer and this is the first time i deal with Lotus Notes.
I am trying to initialize an Lotus Notes Session. however, i got an error "An exception of type 'NotesSession:Notes error: could not open the ID file' was not handled"
when i try to use InitializeUsingNotesUserNa
here's that section of the code:
Dim s
set s = CreateObject("Lotus.NotesS
Call s.Initialize("password")
'and then process documents.....
some environment info.:
i am running win2k, with lotus notes client installed. Lotus Domino Server is not installed.
i have checked the notes.ini file, KeyFilename=user.id. i've tried changing it to the full path, but didn't help.
i noticed if i used InitializeUsingNotesUserNa
what should i do????

thanks for replying my post!
that's what i did - passing the password with Initialize(), and i also tried passing username and password with InitializeUsingNotesUserNa
currently, my user.id file is located in C:\Program Files\lotus\notes\data, and i hv this full path in the keyfilename. is that right?
thanks for the suggestion, i'll post the question again under Lotus Notes.
thanks again.
I'm not sure how VB picks up the correct location of the id file. In notes it's notes.ini that stores the location of the last id that was used. You can also define a file (+path) in the location document, but neither is defined here...

I know nothing about VBscript, but perhaps this helps to set you on the right track:
Set session = CreateObject("Lotus.NotesS
Call session.Initialize("passwo
Call session.InitializeUsingNot
Set db = session.getDatabase("","")
I copied it (I won't reveil that) from http://www.experts-exchang
If you post a request under community support to move this question to the lotus notes topic area, then perhaps my friend qwaletee can help you any further if you get stuck. That way you don't have to spend another 500!
