Basic product usage information and programming language reference information.
Connectors
Connectors provide native access to a wide variety of DBMS products, ODBC, the platform File system, Enterprise Resource Planning systems, and Transaction Processing systems.
LSX for Connectors
LotusScript® Extensions for Connectors (LC LSX) enhances the power of Notes® by extending its scripting to data outside of Notes through the use of Connectors. The programming model is independent of the individual connector. This eliminates the need to learn each individual system, while at the same time allowing experienced users to access the individual features of a specific system.
Appendix C Connector Properties
This chapter provides information about connector properties. These properties are used when creating connections using the Lotus® Connector LotusScript® Extensions.
