I used to work with Lotus Notes 4.0 but in the reverse direction. If I remember correctly, Lotus stored it's data in one huge flat file for processing and it's certainly not intended for large datasets. Because it is not row/col oriented, there may not even be an ODBC driver which I believe can only access row/col data. I could be way off base here....so be careful. I'll bet with some low level processing, you might just be able to read the lotus file, import it into VFP tables and have far superior processing capabilities.
