submitting infopath form using lotus notes

[roger.chiu]

Hi all, can anyone tell me how to submit a form created by infopath
using lotus notes instead of outlook?

I have created a form at work using infopath, but our company e-mail is
lotus notes. Even though my default e-mail is set using lotus notes,
but when I am submitting a form, it keeps bringing up outlook. Any
clues? or am I just SOL?

Thanks.

Please e-mail me with the solution after you post it. Thanks so much.

Roger

hey Roger
I'm sorry to tell you from my experience so far it's not possible to submit
directly to Lotus notes. I too am working at a client with LN and our
solution was to simply tell the users to save the form then email it back.
Another option (if you know what your doing with LN) is to add some managed
code behind that form that automates LN and creates the message but I'm not
sure how hard or easy this would be.
Cheers
Ben

I have had some success using the Microsoft Connector for lotus notes.
Configure the Outlook connector to lotus notes, then, the default --
Using Outlook, works.

Actually you can make it work. Microsoft has a Lotus Domino add in for
Outlook 2002 and 2003. It's called olconn2.exe. I have installed it and not
only can I get Lotus Notes Mail in my Outlook but I can now utilize the
submit button on my form.
