    Hey Ashok!
    On question(4) you say "so you can 'hand-code' your HTML for special effects or some other purpose".
    I need to do eactly this BUT on a client application where the HTML is produced by a lotusscript agent: I click a button, the agent runs and produces the HTML. I can't show it on that client form, though...
    This is bread and butter in web applications but it seems to be quite difficult in Notes apps.
    Any help?

Lotusscript to establish ODBC connection:

The script, when executed from a button, will create a new record in a specified ODBC data source, attempt to save the new record and display a message indicating whether the operation was completed successfully. If the operation is not completed sucessfully, it is likely that either your data source is read-only or your ODBC driver does not permit updates to the data source. Important: Complete each of the four steps below before running the script. 1. Create a new agent and add the following UseLSX command to the Options event: UseLSX "*LSXODBC" 2. Add the following script to the Initialize event of the agent. NOTE: Do not add the 'Sub' and 'End Sub' lines. Dim ui As New NotesUIWorkspace     Dim uidoc As NotesUIDocument     Dim doc As NotesDocument     Dim connection As ODBCConnection     Dim query As ODBCQuery     Dim result As ODBCResultSet         Set uidoc=ui.CurrentDocument ...

What is the difference between soft locking and document locking (sometimes called hard locking) in Lotus Notes®, and when are these locking features are enabled?

Document Locking: In Notes/Domino 6.x, a database property feature called "Allow document locking" was introduced. When this property is enabled, any user with Author access or above can lock a document across all replicas . This prevents two or more users from making changes to the same document and then replicating - which would create replication conflict documents. To enable this feature, you can select the database property "Allow document locking" in the basics tab. Soft Locking: Soft locking was also a new feature in Notes/Domino 6, but it was not documented as clearly as document locking. Soft locks are in-memory locks that are enabled when documents are in memory, and are not persistent. The editor takes out a soft lock on a document when it is opened in edit mode, and then unlocks it when the document is closed. During the period of time when it is soft locked, no one else can edit that document but it only affects the current repl...
